Hounslow Civic Centre, Municipal government building in Hounslow, United Kingdom
Hounslow House is a six-story municipal building in West London featuring glass facades, a central atrium, and substantial office space for local government operations. The center provides administrative services, a registry office, and a one-stop shop where residents access multiple council services.
The original Civic Centre opened in 1975 under the design of George Trevett and served the community for decades. The operations relocated to the current location on Bath Road in 2019 with this newer building.
The building houses a council chamber with movable partitions and spaces where the community regularly gathers for meetings and events. These rooms reflect how the local authority conducts public business and connects with residents.
The building sits in a central location with good access to public transportation for visitors arriving by bus or train. The layout keeps different services organized so people can find what they need without confusion.
The building earned a BREEAM Excellent rating by using carbon-neutral design and water conservation systems throughout its structure. This level of environmental commitment is uncommon in municipal buildings of this type.
