Past
Projects
Since The Curious Network began from a bedroom in Brixton 2006, we had a vision to create surprising places using careful design. Transforming each unloved building into a unique place that wears its heritage proudly on its sleeve, reinvigorating the area, and making a positive impact on the local community.
To get to where we are today, we’ve been on a roller coaster of acquiring and developing all sorts projects across the UK; offices; supermarkets; hotels; student housing; residential; distribution units and beyond.
Here’s a snapshot of The Curious Network projects that have been and gone and helped shape our DNA over the past 18 years.
OUR TCN JOURNEY MIRRORS THE TWISTS AND TURNS OF EVERY SMALL BUSINESS GROWTH.

Express Park | Workspace | GDV £8 million | 2020
Nest@mallard was a conversion of a tired office building at Express Park, into Somerset's most revered serviced office facility with a difference.
Express Park was originally farmland which has been transformed into the South West’s leading Office and Distribution Park through a substantial investment in flood defence and alleviation works. Today you will find offices, distribution, a hotel, restaurant and gym facilities.
White City | Workspace | GDV £16 million | 2020
Before Wework existed we were in partnership with BBC, Imperial College & JPCreative to turn derelict White City offices into a Media, Creative and Tech Campus.
