The Hamamatsu Project
Project Vision
For over 65 years, Hamamatsu Photonics has designed and supplied advanced photoelectric devices worldwide. Its UK office in Welwyn Garden City sought a workspace refresh to support
innovation and collaboration while reflecting the company’s heritage.
The brief was to revitalise the existing office, create new innovation areas, and design a workspace that embodies the company ethos of exploring the unknown.
Komfort’s Solution
- Frameless Glass Doors
- Timber Doors
- Komfire 75
- Komfire 100
Brand-Inspired Design: Natural tones, bright red accents, and subtle cultural references express Hamamatsu’s identity.
Defined Work Zones: Contrasting carpet lines, oak desks, and green accents guide circulation while supporting biophilic design for staff wellbeing.
Collaborative Spaces: Partitioned boardroom with acoustic panels and Kross glass ensures quiet, productive meetings. Japanese-themed graphics and 3D signage connect spaces visually and culturally.
The End Result
The refurbished office fosters collaboration, innovation, and a stronger sense of identity. Multifunctional spaces now support a connected workforce while reflecting Hamamatsu’s heritage and forward-thinking ethos.
