The Brief in Brief
The building, located in Loughborough consists of ground and first floor levels both fully refurbished to provide a modern Head Office. Designed to have a relaxed combined residential-commercial ambience. The office space demanded a high-quality partitioning solution, which could be supported by a team with sound technical knowledge.
Working closely with the contractor, 360 Commercial Projects and specifically, Director Adam Collier, for whom Komfort have been working together with on multiple projects spanning over three decades, this requirement was easily achievable.
As Adam Collier confirms “In a competitive market place, it is paramount that we are able to specify products which combine to offer a practical and attractive design concept, while having the ability to demonstrate value for money, for this reason Komfort are a key partner in our supply chain and will continue to be so into the future.”
The end result
This was a project that brilliantly demonstrates a contractor and supplier partnership built on trust, over many years. This ongoing partnership of 360 Commercial Projects and Komfort Partitioning will continue to delight clients and will ensure their design visions become a reality for years to come.
The client was clear on their feelings on the project outcome “We recently used 360 Commercial Projects for a complete refurbishment of our two-story office building. Having reached out to a few fit-out companies, we were really impressed with Adam and Bens approach to the project. The initial designs exceeded expectation and the detailed costing was clear and easy to navigate – an important factor when embarking on a large project. The execution of the project was well organised, and communication was prompt throughout. We are delighted with the results”
