Our Projects
Moving offices is never easy but it helps when a previous commercial tenant leaves behind their office furniture and much of it matches your style. Even better when you’re a company that highly regards sustainability and there is the opportunity to save on landfills. This was the situation encountered when our client, a global science and tech company, moved into an office space in Granta Park.
Re-using the office furniture was a bonus but the workspace was still a large open-plan setting and the need to create zones to cater for breakout areas, collaboration and private meeting space was still a consideration for their hybrid workforce. Our interior designers reviewed the space and our fit out team partitioned several areas creating a new meeting/training room, a new staff breakout hub for lunch and coffee breaks and a goods-in store.
As the new space was largely open-plan, it was important to provide solutions to remedy the acoustics and reduce the flow of sound as much as possible. The new meeting room included high-performance acoustic construction and wall-height acoustic wall panels, and the main open meeting space, along with the kitchen area, also had acoustic rafts installed, adding an aesthetic aligning with the client’s corporate brand.
With 75% of their collaboration and breakout furniture being moved from the previous property, the client only required a few meeting room tables, chairs, phone booths and meeting pods. By opting for ‘Framery and Silen ’ pods, the client chose high quality, stylish booths and meeting pods to meet the increased need for privacy in the new workspace.
Our team, alongside Senator’s Sustain project, ensured that as part of the move, 2,203 kg of furniture was diverted from landfill resulting in a saving of 3,733 kg/CO2e.
