Marconi House, Grade II listed building in Strand, London, United Kingdom
The Marconi House features intricate Victorian architectural elements, classical proportions, and detailed facade work designed by Richard Norman Shaw in 1904.
From 1912 to 1933, this building served as the headquarters for the Marconi Companies, marking a significant period in radio communications development.
The seventh floor studios of this building made history in 1922 when they broadcast the first radio programs from the London Broadcasting Station 2LO.
The building underwent a transformation between 2011 and 2013, converting the space into 86 residential apartments with modern amenities.
The lobby displays 37 custom kiln-formed glass panels that change appearance through programmed lighting sequences throughout the day.
