WELCOME TO Gleeds

Gleeds is a worldwide property and construction consultancy with 56 offices across the globe, and we were delighted when they approached us to assist them in the design and fit-out of their new office in the centre of Cardiff. They had decided to move from existing premises in Cardiff Gate as they had simply outgrown the space and it didn’t provide them with the meeting facilities and flexible working areas they needed.
As you would expect with such a large business, their corporate identity was of utmost importance, so incorporating the company brand into the design of the new office was a significant part of the project.

 

High Ceilings

The new premises, based in Greyfriars Road in Cardiff, benefit from wonderful high ceilings and tall windows on the south-facing elevation, which brings plenty of light into the space.

The focus for most of the working areas and the main meeting room was on the sunny south elevation, with the reception, comms room and tea-point being located on the cooler north side. The brand was introduced into the space with the use of colour on a few walls and manifestation on the glass and walls in reception.

Working areas

Staff at Cardiff Gleeds also decided to take the opportunity to move away from their existing cumbersome 90 degree corner desks, which were traditionally used for CRT monitors, to a more modern and collaborative way of working in the form of benches, combined with some mid-height storage units for ad hoc, short meetings.

 

SOME NICE WORDS

“We appointed Paramount Interiors to manage the design and fit-out (including supply and fitting of new furniture) for our new city centre office relocation and are absolutely delighted with the outcome. From the outset, they listened to our requirements, took control of the project and delivered a high quality solution within a very tight budget that has fully achieved our vision. Their professional approach, open communication and attention to detail, made it a smooth and enjoyable process.”

Simon Williams, Director, Gleeds Management Services Ltd
