Result

Challenges

Hurst were tasked with delivering bespoke joinery across multiple floors, with each space serving a different function and requiring its own design approach. A high standard of finish had to be maintained across all areas of the building.

Installation required thorough planning and flexibility to coordinate effectively with other trades. Due to the site’s location off a busy main road, deliveries were carefully managed to limit disruption.

Solution

Hurst worked closely with the client and design team from the early stages, providing technical input and design expertise throughout the tender and scheme development process.

Joinery elements, including wall panelling, cupboards, banquette seating, teapoints and planters were designed to enhance the reception, communal areas, boardrooms and co-working spaces, combining style with practical functionality.

Alongside this, Hurst’s tiling division delivered high-quality finishes to the reception, lift lobbies, kitchen areas, washrooms and external entrance, ensuring the interiors were not only visually striking but also durable and practical for everyday use.
