A major new force in commercial refurbishment and fit-out has emerged as we joins forces with the multi-national group, Korus, to establish an international office design partnership.

We’ve seen many trends over the years. When we started, computer networks were in their infancy, few people had heard of the Internet, mobile phones were huge and not very mobile, desks were “L” shaped to house the cathode ray tube computer monitor, secretarial typing pools were still being used, filing cabinets were everywhere, and most managers had their own private offices. Now, we’re all agile, healthy, eco, activated, and connected.

We sat down with Toby to find out everything you need to know about Tenant-Ready™, our new game-changing service that takes office space beyond Cat A+. Tenant-Ready™ offers a comprehensive program for ultra-flexible offices that work in a post-COVID world.

After four years in Mayfair, Cain International decided it was time to move their UK headquarters to Islington Square. They reached out to our team to transform the heritage-listed post office sorting building from a shell and core fit out to a future-proofed office space spanning six floors.

When architects Arney Fender Katsalidis (AFK) worked in partnership with WORKTECH Academy to study the future of the flexible workspace market in the UK, the research team discovered that corporate occupiers and flexible space operators were searching for a new formula in the emerging hybrid world of work – with important implications for design and amenities. In this extract from the report, ‘The Future of Flex: Flexible Workspace in the UK Post Covid-19’ (2021), Earle Arney and Kat Hayes of AFK look at what corporate occupiers are looking for in terms of office design and present some prevailing themes.

Numis, a leading financial services firm, sought an innovative office design to encourage communication, inspire interaction, and create an environment where employees can thrive. The office fit out aimed to align with the building’s BREEAM Excellent and EPC B ratings, incorporating sustainable design elements that reflect Numis’ forward-thinking vision.

A workplace consultancy is a service designed to help businesses adapt to their current needs and thrive in an ever-evolving work environment. It’s about more than optimising office layouts—it’s about creating a workspace that aligns with your business goals, boosts productivity, and supports employee wellbeing.

Sleep, diet, and exercise are recognised as the three fundamental aspects of overall well-being. A power nap refers to a short sleep taken during the day and is an effective way to recharge and wake up feeling relaxed.

The UK may have avoided a recession, but economic pressures continue to present challenges for the property market, making it more important than ever to offer the types of spaces occupiers are looking for. Sustainability, wellbeing and amenities remain deciding factors in the desirability of commercial real estate. This is how and why they’re continuing to shape the future of the property market.
