Premier Technical Services Group Ltd (PTSG) has been contracted to deliver specialist electrical services specifically lightning protection at the new studios in Birmingham.

Homes England owns the land. The sensitive designs by Digbeth-based architecture practice BG Projects include a new modern extension.
