Strip, Reconfigure, Refit, Finish & Furnish
A radical refurbishment of over 200m2 of office space took place. Stripping out the existing partitioning and reconfiguring to a clever design that created the cross-functional work areas that balance open-plan office accommodation with breakout rooms and spaces for collaboration or privacy. Active installed the VAM heat exchangers and Air Conditioning ducting as well as the electric and A/V fixings. There were new walls, ceilings and flooring throughout including across a mezzanine level.
There were enclosed rooms, meeting rooms and a tea point all delivered to Petrofac’s quality specifications.
High quality flooring was used throughout and feature lighting added interest to the traditional office ceilings. Active supplied the furniture used throughout the refurbishment including shelving, sofas and stand-up desks to encourage a mixture of formal and informal collaboration.
Feature walls with an environmental feel and occasional pops of bright colours all helped to bring the space to life.
The finished accommodation matches the tone and ethos of the Petrofac brand and the 20 employees working in the UK New Energies team.
“It’s sometimes the small things like transparent communications, that make a project run easily. We have had to add on some more small works after the team moved in, but Active have been happy to help us with this to help us get what we need.” – David Reid, Facilities Manager, Petrofac.
