Project 8064 FT2 (749 M2) 87 staff, Relocation

Project detailsWorkspace appointed to relocate Orient Capital from serviced offices into 6th floor at 125 Wood Street.

Full design support provided throughout the landlord approvals process

Workspace’s prior knowledge of the building enabled us to pre-empt many of the design queries and minimise the turn-around time for approval of the scheme.

The design incorporates two general areas, with a meeting room suite at the western end of the office, served by a greeting area and small teapoint, and the main open plan area with workbench style desking.

A large kitchen and breakout area were provided at the eastern end of the office for general staff use.

Task /conference seating by Interstuhl.“We first started working with Workspace in May 2014 on a project to help us move into our new European Headquarters. Having acquired a couple of businesses that year it was important for us to bring people together and present an updated brand identity and welcome everyone new to the group. Unfortunately we had a false start on the relocation we had timed for October 2014 but we continued our trusted relationship with Workspace so that by the time we were ready to review our options again in 2015, we had already made a solid decision on which fit-out company we were going to use.

From the inception of what we were trying to achieve with our new office space to the end result they listened and helped us, from the space planning, to the look and feel of the design and ultimate execution and delivery on time and budget. I would not hesitate recommending Workspace to a company who is looking for a professional service with a management team, in Paul and James, that really did demonstrate attention to detail and care for what they were doing. The outcome is that we have a home for European Headquarters that we are really happy with.”

TradewindsLocation 125 Wood Street, 7th Floor, London EC2V 7AN

Business Print and New Media publisher

Project 4873 FT2 (1109 M2) 69 staff, Relocation

Description

NHST Media Group are a leading provider of business news in Norway, incorporating various publications in the shipping (Tradewinds News), seafood, and oil & gas sectors.

Having moved them into their previous office in 2011, Workspace were delighted to be appointed again by Tradewinds when they decided to move to a smaller office in July 2015 to suit their changing business requirements.

Project details

• Having selected 125 Wood Street as their preferred building, Workspace provided full support for the landlord approvals process, working closely with the landlord and their consultant to get the designs approved.

• Although mainly open plan, careful design of the cellular spaces was required in order to coordinate with the chilled beam air conditioning system above the ceiling.

• Two sound-proofed meeting rooms were provided, along with a kitchen / breakout space, facilities area andcomms room.

• A glass dividing wall with feature graphics was also installed to delineate a separate area for MyNewsDesk – another of the separate companies within NHST Group.

• Workbench style desking was supplied by K+N for the open plan areas, with height adjustable desks for specific users. Black and white task chairs from Interstuhl completed the clean, modern look with splashes of colour being introduced into the soft seating.

“We had used Workspace for our previous move in 2011 from Shoe Lane to Farringdon Street, it was our first cooperation and we were very satisfied with the whole project and after sale service. When it was decided that it was time to move again, the team at Workspace naturally came to mind. This was a very tight project, only 6 weeks between giving Workspace the contract and the moving-in date, an empty floor in an empty building, so nothing tried or tested. Paul Judd, the Workspace Design Director, was ready with plans for us as soon as we got the go-ahead and Alex Pollock, Project Manager took charge of the schedule and works.

We had regular site meetings and felt part of the project from conception – visiting furniture showrooms with James, changing layout plans with Paul, to development; numerous regular site meetings with Alex and Paul to completion, all on schedule. We were always consulted when changes were made and never felt uneasy when we changed our mind or wanted to run through different layout scenarios, even at a late stage. We were always listened to.

If you are looking for an efficient and professional team to fit-out your new office with a personal touch, one able to go that extra mile, (even after the work is technically finished), I could not think of a better team to recommend than Workspace.”

Description

BDA Partners is a leader in cross-border investment banking, advising primarily on transactions involving Asia. BDA provides advisory services for M&A (mergers & acquisitions), capital raising, and restructuring, to blue-chip corporate and financial sponsor clients from North America, Europe and Asia.

Workspace were appointed by BDA Partners to help them relocate their London operations from serviced

accommodation into their own new offices at 7 – 8 Conduit Street. BDA had committed to a fixed date for moving out of their serviced office, leaving only a very short 4-week timescale for the new offices to be fitted out. Concentrating on the critical elements of the project, Workspace were able to achieve a phased completion of the project, enabling BDA to relocate to a fully operational office on their chosen date.

Project detailsFixed client move date dictated a very short 4-week fit-out period.

Critical fit-out elements successfully completed within this time, enabling client to move in as planned.

New office design incorporates a main open plan area with work bench style desking, a greeting area, two meeting rooms and a kitchen / breakout space.

Existing kitchen units retained and refurbished to help keep costs down, but the surrounding partitions were stripped out and reconfigured to give a more practical break-out space.

New vinyl flooring and café-style tables and chairs from Elite.

Walnut meeting room tables supplied by K+N, with blue fabric covered conference chairs from Interstuhl.

Feature reception wall with corporate logo and illuminated recess to display client’s awards.
