Now I know what the Re stands for. Apparently right, there are insurance companies that insure insurance companies, enter the re part of Swiss Re. So who care right? Well I’ve started my mini secondment in the new London headquarters for Swiss Re, in the Gherkin, just off Liverpool St. I’ve got to say it’s pretty damn impressive building if you view it from the bottom. It’s very unique and a true feat of structural engineering. Practically it’s bollocks, but the view is truly magnificent from the 30th floor, and there are another like 14 floors above that! What’s nice is that the top floors or some of those are going to be restaurants, weird but I can seriously seeing it working out in the end.

Right at the bottom you’ll see our name down there, we did the structure :).
