Personalising your office space

Identity Creative officesIt’s always interesting to see how clients personalise their office space in the months that follow an office refurbishment or furniture fit-out.

Often you find that the space has evolved to match the personality of the business and so we were delighted to see on a recent visit to Identity Creative in Cambridge their latest wall artwork.

We completed a full office refit for Identity Creative and Glassworks International but at that point the walls were a blank canvas.  We love this creative and fun wall design, which brings the best out of the furniture too, but shall leave the interpretation of the design to you.

Bedford Office Refit Creates a Great Office in a Grade II Listed Building

We like a challenge and so when EMC Design wanted to maximise the office space in their Grade II Listed Building in Bedfordshire we were more than happy.

EMC Design office refit by Source One ConsultingAfter a detailed design and planning process that including getting all the necessary Listed Building Consents, we installed stylish glass walls and partitioning to create a private office and separate meeting room.  With the addition of a bespoke wall-space storage unit we were able to maximise the storage space in the office, while new decor and flooring throughout gave it a light open and airy feel.

Our customers also seem more than happy with the results, with Sophie O’Rourke of EMC Design commenting:

“Throughout the Project Source One were always on hand when we had a question – any time of the day – and they were on site to ensure everything went as smoothly as possible. They really do care so much about the companies they work with and are so personable but with the right mix of professionalism and efficiency”

Office Interior Specialist Source One Consulting Delights More Customers

We may be one of the region’s leading office interior specialists but it’s what our customers say that really counts. So it’s always particularly satisfying when a customer is delighted with our efforts and would recommend us to other business owners.

Sharedband and Source One in the East Anglian Daily TimesJust take a look at what Tim Burne, chief operating officer of Sharedband said in this week’s East Anglian Daily Times:

“We spoke to a few local office interiors companies, but Pat and Source One were the obvious choice for us, based on past performance with their clients and the speed they responded to our requirements.”

“Pat and his team were able to handle all the organisation of our project with regard to the partitioning, new data and electrics, furniture and even the dilapidation of our old premises. This released us to get on with our own tasks and leave control of all the elements of the project to Pat. A real time-saver! I would certainly recommend Pat and Source One to other business owners.”

Control the Noise in Your Office or Workplace

There is no doubt that too much noise in an office proves disruptive and distracting. It certainly does not have a positive impact on your employees or business.

However, with some effective space planning and the clever use of furniture and materials it is possible to achieve an acoustic balance that will significantly reduce the disruptive noise in your work place.

The use of partitions, screens and furniture can be an efficient way to block sound from travelling across a workspace.  The choice of extra dense core materials with absorbent outer surfaces will further soak up the sound.

Source One work with some of the leading suppliers of acoustic technology and can supply and fit specialist ceiling tiles and reverb wall panels that can absorb excessive noise.

To cover unwanted sounds, a fully digital sound masking system is a highly effective option.

If you would like to improve the acoustic balance in your office and consider the different options available give Source One a call today on 08456 131 585.
