Office Refurbishment Brief

Alpha Innovation contacted us to refurbish several key areas at its office in Wrotham Heath, Sevenoaks. These included a reception area, training room for boiler fitters, meeting room and hallway.

Our remit was to update the heavily used areas and ensure they supported the company’s operations. To meet these requirements, our team’s workplace design and build expertise would prove essential.

Our Solution

Reception Area

Having changed to an unmanned reception setup, Alpha needed us to adapt the area accordingly. The space also need a design refresh to make a better first impression on employees and guests.

To start, we removed various redundant elements, including a dated sofa and reception desk. This opened the space up and allowed us to introduce new concrete-effect vinyl and a bespoke Alpha Heating Innovation entrance mat.

Other new features of the reception design include a branded feature wall with accompanying spotlights, LED ceiling downlights, modern door wrapping, waiting area chairs with fixed “spider” bases, a new sliding entrance door, and works to an alcove to hide an existing fire panel.

Training Room

Like the reception area, we began this phase of the project by removing a number of redundant elements. These include decorations, joinery items, flooring and training furniture.

In place of the old facilities, we implemented a sleek, minimalist design that is ideal for regular training sessions. One key feature is the new bespoke worktop, which includes a gap behind the upstand for pipework runs. This ensures that Alpha will not damage the worktops when the boilers are due to be changed.

Additionally, we installed slip-resistant flooring, an island workstation with concrete-effect top, hand washing basins and further vinyl wrapping to the door.

Meeting Area

Next to the training room, Alpha required works to the meeting area, which serves as a space for further studying and development. The room had become very tired and dated, so our brief was to breathe new life into the design.

To do so, our office interior designers suggested a number of small but effective changes. For example, they replaced the classroom-style tables with a new meeting table, which includes a built-in rollover power module. To accompany this, they introduced a set of mesh-back meeting chairs with cantilever leg frames.

Combined with the new wall covering, concrete-effect carpet tiles (also laid in the hallway), and storage unit, the space now looks more mature compared to the school-classroom design it had previously.

The Result

With the new aesthetic elements, training facilities and furniture, Alpha’s office is now more modern and practical for its users. The previously cluttered reception area is now welcoming and visually arresting, while the training room and adjoining meeting space will ensure a first-class learning experience for Alpha’s boiler fitters.
