BRPD Services Supporting BSA Compliance for a Sustainable Redevelopment
As part of our ongoing collaboration with EQT Real Estate and Storex, OSG Architecture undertook the Building Regulations Principal Designer (BRPD) role for the redevelopment of a disused business car park into a 10,000m², five-storey self-storage and incubator workspace hub in Loughton, Essex.
This project forms part of a wider programme of work with EQT Real Estate, where OSG has been appointed onto the EQT Real Estate Framework to provide BRPD across multiple Storex sites, supporting consistent and robust compliance with the Building Safety Act (BSA) and Building Safety Regulator (BSR) requirements.

delivering confidence through experience
Our appointment to this framework builds on OSG’s extensive experience delivering complex commercial and industrial projects across the UK. Our understanding of both the architectural design process and regulatory landscape enables us to act as an informed and pragmatic partner to developers, contractors, and financiers seeking a knowledgeable partner in a changing compliance environment.
The STOREX Loughton development features several sustainability measures, including a bio-diverse green roof, PV solar panels, EV charging, and energy-efficient LED lighting. OSG provided oversight and review as part of the BRPD role.
summary
The successful completion of STOREX Self Storage Loughton is representative of our stand-alone BRPD service:
- A simple, assured route to BSA compliance, even where OSG is not the lead designer.
- Integrated working with existing design and construction management teams.
- Confidence for clients, financiers, contractors and quantity surveyors that regulatory duties are being met consistently and transparently.
OSG continues to support EQT Real Estate and Storex across further UK sites, helping deliver safe, sustainable, and compliant developments that set new standards in the sector.
