Luxury Retail Case Study 

This traditional French drinks company—with a strong heritage and identity—wanted to transform their space to better reflect their current brand. 

The brief was to create an in-house bar experience enabling them to host event nights. Client spaces needed to be overhauled, establishing a better flow through the building, while working areas needed to be more functional with a 60% increase in staff numbers.

To enhance employees’ well-being, we transformed the rhythm of the office based on sun path analysis in order to increase the natural light within the space. 

We introduced a series of natural finishes which added an important biophilic design element. We created a more domestic feel to the space, that subtlety incorporated specific elements from their different brands and helped to showcase them. 

Sustainability was also a key objective; we reused and repurposed numerous furniture and lighting pieces from the client’s many external events that were being stored, unused, in a warehouse.

In the main working hub, we opened up the cellularised space and created a series of zones which would allow staff to be more agile throughout the day. Focus areas and phone booths were installed along with touchdown and collaboration worktables.
