M Moser Associates – Hudson River Trading, London

Hudson River Trading (HRT), is a quantitative trading firm with over 900 employees across six countries. They partnered with M Moser Associates to create an office in London that supports collaborative work while also reflecting HRT’s culture and identity. The office design and build solution reimagines the traditional trading floor. Specifically, the ‘Tink Tank’, is a dedicated setting for problem-solving and ideating together, outside the banks of desks. The space also includes social areas, such as a café and lounge, for staff to connect and unwind. The design incorporates bespoke algorithm-inspired artwork and uses the angles of HRT’s logo to juxtapose the curves of the building. The office is located in the BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ net-zero carbon building, 100 Liverpool Street. The project team prioritised sustainability by designing all MEP engineering services from scratch, monitoring energy usage, and utilising virtual space capture technology to reduce emissions during construction.
