Client: Amber River, Colchester

The brief

What the client needed

With a new location in Colchester, Amber River wanted a fresh, modern feel for their office that also complemented the brand values in their existing offices.

The change was to signify a new direction of growth for their clients, without creating any feeling of disruption.

It was also important to Amber River to work with local contractors and businesses to deliver the refit.

Our solution

What we delivered

Designed with Service Group Interiors and delivered with local trades.

Layout design

Developed over several iterations with Service Group Interiors.

Acoustic booths

Booth seating for quieter, more private conversations.

Breakout area

Soft seating and high tables for informal meetings.

Electrics and data

Electrics, networking and air conditioning by local contractors.

Walls and glass

Walls, glass and manifestations by local contractors.

The results

The finished workspace

The designed layout went through several iterations, with the final direction surpassing Amber River’s expectations, especially given the tight timeframes the client asked both Neil Andrew Office Solutions and Service Group Interiors to work within.

Building close working relationships with local contractors for electrics, air conditioning, networking, walls, glass and manifestations was vital to delivering the refit.

A final design that surpassed the client’s expectations, to a tight timeframe.
