Enhancing hybrid workspaces
Today’s hybrid working is prompting numerous companies to re-think their office design. They recognize how the physical layout and décor can positively influence the health and wellbeing of employees, leading to better performance.
Armourcoat was involved in a project with one of the world’s leading premium car manufacturers, which completed a comprehensive re-design and fit-out of its UK head office.
The aim was to deliver an activity-based working environment where everyone can move around to the most suitable spot to work depending on the time of day and the task at hand—to create a space where employees feel happy to be at work. The 2,000m² space across three floors was reconfigured to combine offices, work/touch-down spaces, and meeting facilities, with a ground-floor reception offering open working areas.
As part of a more hospitality-based ground-floor collaboration zone, interior design consultant Meda created two distinct lounges, providing spaces where staff could engage with others or work individually, each offering a unique experience of space.
Perlata Decorative Paint in silver was specified for a feature fireplace wall in the ground floor, which also includes two smart screens and helps divide the more public drop-in lounge from a more discreet private zone at the rear.
