Acoustics

Acoustic treatment in the workplace has become more important as spaces have become more open plan and staff work more collaboratively, either in person or digitally over video or voice communication. Consequently noise levels have increased. We encourage clients to set aside some budget in the project cost to allow for these elements. They become an intrinsic part of the design and branding package on ceilings and walls.

Mechanical & Electrical

M&E is often 40-50% of the budget, and mostly you don’t even see it! It’s critical to get it right, working with a team that understand the design philosophy and what you’re trying to achieve is key. M&E affects the whole environment, controls the level of real and perceived comfort from temperature to lighting. It needs to fit in with the whole space whether it’s on show or not.

Lighting

Whilst lighting comes under the M&E budget it stands apart as a critical element that can make or break your project. So it is essential to find the right balance of cost and aesthetics and to work with a consultant who understands how to use light for the best effect.

Build

Again, finding the right partner is crucial when it comes to delivering your project. A conscientious contractor, who understands all the elements of construction and has a reliable team of subcontractors behind them, will make it possible to realise the full potential of the design in a timely and relatively stress free way.

Joinery

Quality and robustness are essential aspects of joinery that need to be delivered at the right price and on time. Good workmanship can go unnoticed, but poor workmanship does not. A reception desk or coffee bar are often centre stage, expressing the design concept and your brand.

Furniture

Furniture should be practical, ergonomic and aesthetic. It also needs to be flexible and re-configurable, and as it usually absorbs a large part of the budget it is important to work with a supplier you can trust will deliver good quality at an acceptable cost.

Branding & Wall Treatments

Branding is specific to your company and should be both aesthetic and practical. Co-ordinated colours, patterns and images are used to reinforce your brand, and define spaces and their uses.

Change Management

We can research your company’s existing ways of working and provide critical thinking, based on collected data, to help you reshape your working environment and culture. This might include integration of new technology into the workspace. Our skill is to translate analysis into design, and ideas into reality.
