Appointed by a well-established local client, we were challenged to create a sleek, contemporary printer showroom, customer experience centre and call handling facility, to challenge facilities offered by global manufacturers.

A technically challenging project with a focus on the retention of as much as possible of the original building, where full site supervision was offered to assist the contractor. The result is a positive example of how demolition and rebuilding is not the only answer to the client’s brief, and good design can be integrated within the constraints of building retention.

The project was delivered on budget, within a tight timeframe and ended up as a finalist for ‘Best Technical Development’ at the 2012 East Midlands LABC Awards.
