Project story
We met (with the greatest respect and fondness) the Managing Director who was an extremely well-heeled chap in his existing premises which were as described diplomatically above as dilapidated. We wondered whether the project was really a good fit for us. A few weeks later we received a call saying he had found a building to buy and would we meet him on site
We visited site and explained the scope of conversion and refurbishment, build and fit out works: conversion of the commercial warehouse to offices, enlarged W.C.s, Showers, 2 kitchens, breakout, events space, boardroom, showrooms, a samples room and warehouse. The budget was extremely tight, and that he required full mechanical design and application to building control and planning for the change of use. After we received the extensive brief we were puzzling outside the building trying to work out how we could do it for the budget, a car passed and we saw a wave as the client exited the car park in what my designer Umair described as a top of the range Porche, we fell about laughing as we’d received a story of extremely tight budgets and little funding for the project
