Interesting facts

Oriel Chambers is one of the finest and most influential buildings of its age being one of the first office buildings to use an iron framework structure.

Its innovative design had a considerable influence on office buildings across the world, inspiring John Root's early Chicago skyscrapers and shaping the New York skyline we know today.

Oriel's design was not always appreciated. When it was first built in 1864, the public hated it, with its own builders describing it as a "monstrous agglomeration of protruding plate glass bubbles." Due to this antagonism, architect Peter Ellis only ever designed one other building, leaving Oriel Chambers as one of the only examples of his innovative and ground breaking work.
