about this project
The company occupy 35% of the tallest commercial building in Manchester, securing 92,000sf of world-class office space over multiple floors.
The office space has been designed to provide a variety of choice, to break down barriers, hierarchies and physical separations between teams and to provide total flexibility for their 900+ local employees.
The space has also been designed with their clients in mind, and includes convenient client workspaces available for use by clients whenever they are in Manchester.
Special tribute is also paid to the local industrial heritage of Manchester, which can been seen in the design features and color scheme throughout the space. These include the Manchester Bee, the invention of Graphene and several iconic buildings and music references.
“Our people have led the development of the office and we’ve worked very closely with the developers to design an office that breaks new ground in many ways. The office focuses on allowing our people and clients to work flexibly, utilising technology to ensure we can work together effectively. Co-working space for our clients reflects the demands of our clients to work together closely with their strategic advisors.”
Internal teams spent two years canvassing the opinions and requirements of all staff, making sure that everyone’s voice has been heard and most importantly, working together with the design team at BDP to create an amazing space that is fit for purpose and will facilitate continued growth.
OE provided a number of power solutions for the space, including Pluto, Phase, and PixelTUF. All were finished in custom colors to compliment the space’s color scheme and interior design.
