Background:

Hill Street Investments (...with a primary focus in oil exploration) commissioned Travis to create a smart new workplace, to portray efficiency and a professional, streamlined organisation fit for investment and subsequent business opportunity.

The Challenge:

Day-to-day operations demand intensive use of the company boardroom, with a further requirement for branch-off workgroups. HSI™ have a number of in-house professionals who work under their own merit, demanding a more individual work environment and room to spread out.

The Solution:

Great care has been taken to ensure HSI™ can create a more fluid office experience, from an attractive new entrance hall and waiting area leading to reception, the boardroom and so on. This is also complemented by an ability to keep meeting areas separate, for example; the new conferencing room is also accessible by a second entrance located to the left upon arrival.

By knocking through the current retaining kitchen wall, we freed-up valuable space for additional work stations, located within a new online conferencing area. The kitchen area has been relocated within reach of necessary amenities, keeping disruption and associated costs to a minimum.

Visiting contractors who work under their own merit have been catered for in a new ‘Internet Cafe / Bar’ themed hot-desking area.

The Benefits:

Efficient use of floorspace across reception, workstations, meeting rooms, catering and hot-desking
Tech room with large format, multipoint video conferencing system
Quality Assurance / Building Regulation / Risk / Scheduling / Logistics / Insurance / Due diligence
Breakdown: Materials / Skilled trades / Fire systems / Electrics / Security / Plumbing / Joinery etc.
A bright modern and inspirational new working environment laced with technology
