About

Background

Visit the impressive client reception floor and terraces of Dutch bank ING's UK office and encounter the amazing art and archive collections on display in a vibrant blend of old and new.

Exterior

ING's UK office is a nine-storey office development located in the heart of the City, adjacent to the Bank of England and within the Bank conservation area. Designed to integrate happily with the character of the surrounding area, the development occupies a city block of approximately 2,060 sqm consolidated into a single unified building. The historic façade of 8-10 Moorgate has been retained, refurbished and incorporated into the scheme to form the principal frontage and entrance to the building.

Interior

ING moved to 8-10 Moorgate in 2016 and fitted out the interior of the building to accommodate its wholesale banking business - offering services to UK and global corporate clients. The interior design of the client floor showcases ING's art and archive collections and includes references such as stitched leather detailing and stone, herringbone floors that evoke the history of the firm and blend with clean lines and modern touches.

Art and archives on display

A vibrant exhibition of contemporary art on the theme of sustainability greets visitors to the building while our archive display cases tell the story of Barings Bank - the merchant bank acquired by ING thirty years ago in 1995. A self-guided tour will ensure that you don't miss the highlights of our Modern British Art collection that includes works by artists such as LS Lowry and Paul Nash.

Kids art trail

For younger visitors a colourful art trail is available with a small prize for those who complete it.
