“The fit out produced a stunning new vibrant customer experience which is lighter, fresher and more enjoyable. The project involved works to floors and ceilings, decoration, bespoke joinery items and installation of AV and M&E services, successfully handing over a quality driven workspace within agreed timeframe. The works were undertaken in areas adjacent to occupied working areas and as such a comprehensive methodology was devised to minimise disruption and prevent noise transfer to the floors.”
