The brief
The brief was to create a home from home office that echoed elements of the coastal vista that this space is situated in. The client wanted a functional & comfortable office space that offered their customers a less formal experience, yet boasting plenty of workstations, storage & privacy for their growing workforce.
The approach
The office interior company stepped in with a design that met the clients brief & executed a comprehensive CAT B fit out taking the space from shell all the way through to the finished product.
Little bit extra
Returning client, Robinson Michael & Jackson, came to MPL Interiors upon acquiring a new
High Street premises in Maidstone. As part of a successful franchise network, the aesthetic needed to uphold the property brand’s corporate identity, while being set apart from other offices in the group. A sleek, industrial
design was requested, pairing familiar elements with subtle colours and geographical markers. MPL was also asked to draw up plans to convert the upper floor for subletting purposes and to provide all new office furniture.
Conclusuion.
Our site survey found the MPL team in a former charity shop. Lots of old internal cladding and partition walls made determining the true structure of the premises challenging, therefore a complete strip out was necessary. The client was fond of some industrial-style rails that were from the site’s previous incarnation, and these were to influence some of the finishing touches.Detailed technical drawings were drawn up to facilitate a complete overhaul of the power, data, lighting, heating and cooling of the new office, followed by 2D space plans and mood boards. Our client was especially keen to collaborate on our 3D designs, with the digital aspect allowing key stakeholders to shape various iterations of the final look.
