2025: CELEBRATING 35 YEARS IN THE INDUSTRY

CLIENT OVERVIEW AND PROJECT BRIEF

Bruntwood, a leading property management company serving the North of England and beyond, wanted to create a high-quality office space that was functional and optimised to be an enjoyable space for future tenants.

Contact One made Bruntwood’s ideal space a reality, modernising an existing office, creating a functional, aesthetically pleasing environment complete with both structural and decorative features.

SCOPE OF WORK

The project began with a full strip-out of the existing office space, paving the way for a complete refurbishment that prioritised both practicality and design. Partitioning and glazing were introduced to create structured yet open areas, maintaining a sense of flow while defining distinct workspaces. A bespoke kitchen island was designed to add both function and visual interest. The space was finished with a carefully curated colour palette, enhancing its modern and professional feel.

Existing WC facilities were upgraded to provide a more contemporary standard, and bespoke booth seating was incorporated to offer stylish, comfortable breakout areas.

OUR APPROACH AND EXECUTION

The project was completed over an 18-week period, requiring careful planning and execution. We received a design pack from Bruntwood, which we interpreted and refined in collaboration with the client to ensure the final result aligned with their vision.

Managing multiple trades on-site posed challenges, but by maintaining open communication, setting clear objectives and adhering to a structured timeline, we delivered a smooth project outcome without delays.

A standout feature was the bespoke kitchen island, which as designed became a focal point of the space, adding both style and functionality to the office.

FINAL OUTCOME AND CLIENT FEEDBACK

The completed office fully aligned with Bruntwood’s initial goals, providing a transformed space that met the highest standards and balanced high-end finishes with everyday functionality. The attention to detail in the design created a professional and polished look that will offer any future tenants an enjoyable, professional workspace.

We have employed Contact One to undertake the design and build of multiple refurbishments projects over the years, from a couple of hundred sq ft to thousands of sq ft, and we can confirm they were on time and budget. We have found Contact One to be excellent in all of our day-to-day dealings during the projects and confirm all works that have been completed meet the high standard we impose. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to any other business.”
