The 1,800 sq.ft Costa Coffee drive‑to pod unit forms a prominent architectural anchor at Chelmsford’s Clock Tower Retail Park. Designed by Urban Edge Architecture to maximise visibility, the unit is intentionally orientated towards the main road, car park and primary estate entrance to create a highly active, bustling setting.
The structure features expansive, wrap‑around glazing that frames direct views of the park’s iconic landmark – the beautifully restored clock tower that celebrates the site’s history as the former Britvic drinks factory. Seamlessly integrated with the surrounding retail environment, the development incorporates comfortable outdoor seating areas to provide an enhanced and relaxing place for visitors to dwell.
