Through a series of collaborative workshops, we explored a range of look and feel options. The client was particularly drawn to something more grounded and organic that would create warmth and authenticity within the space. Given the building’s extensive glazing and abundance of natural light, this direction felt the most appropriate, providing an opportunity to strengthen the connection between the interior and surrounding environment. As a result of this, we incorporated biophilic features throughout the design, introducing natural materials, planting and textures to enhance wellbeing and create a calming, cohesive atmosphere.

The design adopts a distinctly industrial aesthetic, characterised by exposed services, black mullions and door finishes. This language is expressed predominately across the first floor and carried through to key areas of the ground floor, including the gallery, reception and newly introduced staircase, ensuring visual continuity throughout the space.
The scheme is brought to life through accents of colour, introduced via biophilic features and bolder furniture finishes.

Across the floorplate, a warm palette establishes a sense of comfort and cohesion and is supported by generous biophilic elements that range from natural daylight to a curated mix of planting. These components work together, introducing a calm, restorative quality to the workspace.

Across the floorplate, a warm palette establishes a sense of comfort and cohesion and is supported by generous biophilic elements that range from natural daylight to a curated mix of planting. These components work together, introducing a calm, restorative quality to the workspace.
The design is centred around openness while still respecting the need for privacy and focus. Subtle partitions and grid-style palisades allow teams to feel connected without losing privacy.

Over the years, biophilic design has become a popular feature in workplaces, with companies integrating nature-inspired elements to improve employee wellbeing. This highlights the benefits of connecting workers to nature, including reduced stress, increased creativity and overall better health.

The project was delivered across three floors, giving us the opportunity to create a dynamic and varied workplace environment.

The project was delivered across three floors, giving us the opportunity to create a dynamic and varied workplace environment. With a high level of creative freedom, we were able to fully explore ideas that would bring personality and energy to the space while ensuring it reflected the companies culture.
To shape the design, we held a series of workshops with colleagues in small groups of around 10 people. These sessions allowed us to gain a genuine understanding of what employees wanted from their workplace - how they preferred to work, collaborate and socialise. The feedback played a key role in shaping the final scheme and ensuring the space felt authentic to the team using it everyday.

The completed scheme strikes a balance between a fun, playful aesthetic, using distinctive design elements that give the space its own identity.

The completed scheme strikes a balance between a fun, playful aesthetic, using distinctive design elements that give the space its own identity. Building services were intentionally left exposed throughout, contributing to a more open and expansive feel while enhancing the contemporary character of the interior. A carefully considered palette of contrasting colours has been used to subtly define breakout areas, creating moments of visual interest. Together, these elements create an engaging and dynamic environment that feels both spacious and characterful.

The vision was to introduce a contemporary aesthetic that reflects the organisation’s brand identity while creating a flexible, future-ready workspace.
To develop a deeper understanding of the clients organisation, we facilitated a series of collaborative workshops, each attended by approximately 30 colleagues representing a cross-section of teams and roles. These sessions enabled us to gain detailed insight into how the business operates, its cultural drivers, and its anticipated future requirements. By engaging directly with the end users, we were able to translate operational needs and strategic objectives into informed design principles, ensuring the resulting solution is both highly functional and adaptable to support the organisations long-term growth.
Inclusive design creates workplaces that are accessible and supportive for everyone. Features such as adjustable furniture and accessible routes improve physical accessibility, while sensory-friendly spaces with reduced lighting and noise support neurodivergent employees.

The floorplate is naturally divided into two distinct zones by a central outdoor space, creating a clear yet fluid separation that enhances the overall layout.

The floorplate is naturally divided into two distinct zones by a central outdoor space, creating a clear yet fluid separation that enhances the overall layout.
The layout incorporates a variety of seating options suited to different meeting styles, from informal catch ups to structured presentations. A bespoke joinery banquette was introduced as a focal point, encouraging collaborative drop-ins and providing a comfortable yet purposeful setting for spontaneous interaction resulting in a versatile, people-focused space that adapts seamlessly to the companies evolving needs.

Through a series of collaborative workshops with Petplan, we undertook an in-depth brand discovery process that shaped a truly bespoke workspace tailored to their culture and values.
As a dog-friendly office, it was important to celebrate the finer details that make the environment uniquely theirs - from custom designed dog beds to meeting rooms individually themed around animals. Open breakout areas overlook acres of greenery, promoting wellbeing and connection to nature, while thoughtfully designed “collaboration kennels” created spaces for both focus and teamwork.

Balancing a contemporary aesthetic with distinctive, playful design elements that give the space its unique character. A warm ceiling feature was introduced early to subtly define and separate desk areas, whilst adding visual interest.
The intention was to create an environment where colleagues immediately feel welcome and at ease. A palette of warm oak tones and soft, neutral lime wash finishes establishes a sense of comfort and familiarity, resulting in a workspace that feels both modern and inviting.
