PICTURES show how one of Brighton's biggest ongoing developments will look when work on the site is complete.
The £120 million Edward Street Quarter project involves the redevelopment of the former Amex House, just off Grand Parade in Brighton.
The development is set to be completed early next year.
It aims to provide 110,000 sq ft of office space in order to "attract creative businesses, ambitious start-ups, entrepreneurs and established companies".
There will also be a further 39,000 sq ft of space which will be filled with food and drink vendors, gyms, cinemas and retail units.
A spokeswoman for the development said: "Edward Street Quarter is the £120 million redevelopment of the former Amex House in Brighton, owned by developer First Base and Patron Capital with investment from Investec.
"Designed by BuckleyGreyYeoman, Edward Street Quarter is inspired by Brighton’s eclectic street scene and will introduce a new high quality public realm, with three new public spaces created by renowned landscape designers Spacehub."
To complement the office space available, owners First Base have worked with engineers Buro Happold to design features within the development which boost mental and physical wellbeing.
These include air filters and sensors to eliminate indoor pollutant levels and floor to ceiling windows to allow plenty of natural light into buildings.
There will also be a library to encourage workers to take a break and read, as well as walking and cycling trails on the site, cycle parking and showers.
A final feature will be the inclusion of three green spaces, "heavily planted with mature trees and an ‘edible’ garden full of herbs".
