Angel Square: A Bold New Chapter for Islington

At Ashwell London, we make it our business to keep close to the pulse of London’s commercial property scene — so when Tishman Speyer invited us to have an early look around their brand-new scheme, Angel Square, we jumped at the chance. And honestly? We were blown away.

Set in the heart of Islington, just a stone’s throw from Angel station, this isn’t just a smart new development — it’s a complete reinvention of a site that many in the market will already know. What was once three tired office buildings has been reimagined as one striking, unified destination — and the result is seriously impressive.

Tishman Speyer has pulled off something quite special here. Rather than knocking everything down and starting from scratch, they’ve cleverly brought the existing structures together, blending the old bones with bold, modern design. The result is a standout commercial building that feels both brand new and rooted in its surroundings.

The new Angel Square offers around 200,000 sq ft of beautifully designed, Grade A office space, with generous floorplates, masses of natural light, and all the top-tier amenities you’d expect from a scheme of this calibre. There’s also a real emphasis on wellness and sustainability — think BREEAM Outstanding, WELL Platinum, and Net Zero Carbon in operation. This is future-proofed space, through and through.

But what really struck us was the attention to detail. From the calm, considered design of the communal areas to the rooftop terrace with sweeping views of London, everything feels crafted with care. It’s not just about desks and meeting rooms — it’s about creating a place people actually want to come to work.

Angel Square is a big moment for Islington. It signals a shift — a confident move toward high-quality, sustainable, occupier-focused workspace in one of London’s most characterful boroughs. For businesses looking for something fresh, exciting, and genuinely best-in-class, this one deserves a closer look.

Huge thanks to the team at Tishman Speyer for showing us around and letting us peek behind the scenes. You’ve created something really special here — and we can’t wait to see the buzz build as it opens its doors.
