LONDON BASED BOUTIQUE ASSET MANAGEMENT COMPANY

The company moved into its new Office in 2020, but the space wasn’t being fully utilised. The team enlisted the help of Plann:d to optimise and re-plan the space, allowing them to take full advantage of all it had to offer.

About The London Based Boutique Asset Management Company Project

 

A trusted investment partner, working with both professional and individual investors around the globe, reached out to the team at Plann:d. The team has moved offices a number of times in the past to accommodate growth. London’s popular Covent Garden district was the location of choice for their new office. Although the space had tonnes of potential, it wasn’t fully realised until Plann:d got involved.

 

The team approached Darren at Plann:d with a view to re-planning and redesigning their office. Although they enjoyed the space, they knew it had untapped potential – and it was our job to change that. The office had been quiet over the Covid-19 pandemic, but this was expected to change. The team wanted to make sure that the office was ready for a post-lockdown world.

 

We closed off the already open space to create another meeting room and a two-person office. We created a new print area using existing storage units, as well as moving a wall to accommodate their existing meeting pod.

“I spoke to the company’s Office Manager, and got a brief from her on what wasn’t working with the current space and what they wanted to change,”

Explained Plann:d Workspace Consultant, Darren Tuck.

I visited the site and took dimensions and measurements, getting a feel for the space, what could be moved and what couldn’t. I then went away and spent a couple of weeks drawing up some different layout options. The fit-out work was completed in partnership with Trevor Blake Interiors.

Explained Plann:d Workspace Consultant, Darren Tuck.

There were two areas at the back of the building that were virtually unused: one for document storage and one fitted out with lockers. Both of those spaces lent themselves to being converted into a meeting room and two person office, giving the team additional workspace. We opened up these areas to create a more versatile space; we still allowed space for storage, but the new design was much more space efficient.

 

Working closely with the team, Darren also sourced a selection of partitions to match those already on site, transforming the feel of the office – and making it vastly more flexible. Reconfiguring the space also allowed for the installation of an additional shower room and replacement kitchen unit doors, something that the team had specifically requested.

The team were thrilled with the new-look space, which was finished just in time for the team’s return from their summer office shutdown.

 

More practical, more space-efficient and more aesthetically pleasing than ever before, the team now had a true home away from home, with an additional shower room and bespoke storage wall units with integrated personal lockers and planters. Private working areas and elegant meeting spaces were also installed.

 

After the space planning and design work was completed, we supplied a range of new furniture and added some finishing touches to make the space truly one of a kind. These included bespoke cushions, plants above the lockers and a drinks fridge, which was mounted inside the boardroom’s storage cupboard.

“It was a pleasure working with Darren and the Plann:d team. They were able to redesign our office space to maximise its potential and make it more functional. They supported us through the project working closely with our fit-out company. I’d be happy to recommend team Plann:d.”
