EP Consulting is proud to announce the completion of the new Urban Outfitters store at Metrocentre, Gateshead, which opened in September 2025. Acting as mechanical and electrical (M&E) design consultants, EP Consulting delivered the exposed services design that defines the retailer’s distinctive industrial aesthetic, working in close collaboration with APT Design, the project architects.
