Experience-Led Growth Engine

London Experience Centre

The commission

LTI Mindtree needed a London flagship where clients could experience its technology and work through strategic questions with the team. The 8,200 sq ft centre brought a commercial showcase, meeting spaces and an event setting into a compact footprint. We led the interior design from the initial proposition through development, technical coordination and delivery across RIBA stages 0–7.

What the room enables

The amphitheatre gives a leadership team a shared focal point for a high-stakes presentation, technology demonstration or discussion. The surrounding settings allow people to move into smaller strategy sessions, develop an idea and return to present it to the wider group. Adaptable staging and furniture support changes between client meetings, demonstrations and larger events. Integrated screens, audio and lighting let the team coordinate the physical setting with the content being discussed.

Design decisions

The design combined an amphitheatre, workshop settings and town-hall use rather than treating each as a separate room. Full-scale prototypes helped test geometry and construction before manufacture. Modular elements were developed into mobile units to accommodate larger events. Joinery, audiovisual equipment, power, lighting and circulation had to work together, while allowing the client to change its content and presentation format over time.

Profit-generating infrastructure

The commercial proposition was to give LTI a place to host premium events in-house and demonstrate its services to prospective clients. This is the sense in which the centre is an Experience-Led Growth Engine: a physical resource for business development as well as a workplace. The client had previously spent approximately £250,000 on an external event at Abbey Road. The centre provides an in-house alternative; that historical event cost is not a measured saving per event.

Making and delivery

We connected the spatial design with the specialist teams responsible for joinery, media, lighting, furniture and installation. Previous tenants’ furniture, fittings and equipment were reused or repurposed where suitable. The finished centre is used for client meetings and events. The design shows how a changing programme can be accommodated through adaptable physical elements; the commercial figure should be read separately from that visible evidence.

A complementary practice

Making spaces, testing materials and developing digital tools keep us engaged as practising designers. They give us different ways to examine the same problem. For a designer who thinks holistically, a sketch, a model, a conversation and a working prototype can each reveal something the others miss. Digital tools complement that practice; lived experience and human judgement remain essential.

Role and collaborators

Our role: design lead and technical coordination. Delivery collaborators included Clarke Rendall Joinery, Blue Shoe Interiors, Pixel Artworks, Imperial Electrical, Globe Office Solutions and the client’s AV and IT teams. Photography: PRS.

A workplace built around collaboration

London Fitzrovia – Wells Mews

The commission

Checkout.com needed to occupy a 21,000 sq ft Victorian factory at Wells Mews in London’s Fitzrovia on a 14-week programme. A short lease made the balance between investment, reuse and adaptability particularly important. The project had to give a growing fintech team a working home while retaining the character of the building and coordinating the technical requirements of occupation.

Coders’ scribble rooms

Dedicated scribble rooms gave coding teams a place to work through strategy: sketch a problem, map connections and keep the discussion visible. Side-by-side collaboration settings allowed coders to work alongside one another, compare approaches and resolve a problem together. These spaces supported different kinds of concentration and exchange rather than assuming that every task belonged at the same desk.

The collaborative ethos

We describe this project as having defined the company’s collaborative ethos through its physical workplace. The scribble rooms, side-by-side coding settings, communal kitchen and informal meeting spaces made collaboration a practical part of the layout. This is our account of the project’s contribution, not a claim that one interior alone created the company’s culture.

Design and delivery

We led the interior design, restoration, reuse and technical integration. Daylight, existing fabric and adaptable furniture informed the design alongside building services and compliance requirements. Furniture and materials were selected with the possibility of moving them to a future workplace. The work involved the client team, contractor and specialist suppliers, with plans, sections and construction details connecting the design to installation.

What was observed

We observed that the quiet upper floors and more informal basement offered different attractions from the conventional desk floors. That observation informed our thinking about choice in the workplace: people need settings that suit the task, the conversation and the moment. It is a project observation, not a controlled study of productivity or a diagnosis of the people using the space.

What followed

The workplace was completed on the 14-week programme. The design approach was subsequently used for Checkout.com’s Mauritius office. The portfolio combines completed spaces with technical information to show both the atmosphere of the workplace and the coordination needed to deliver it.

Role and collaborators

A regional headquarters with room to grow

Cambridge regional HQ

The commission

Bellway Homes needed a Cambridge headquarters for a newly formed regional team. The 6,770 sq ft workplace was delivered on a 12-week programme. The brief brought together an identifiable reception, practical working areas, meeting settings and space for future growth. Completed in 2022, the project brought the regional team together in a headquarters designed for daily use.

The design response

Flexible work areas, planting and locally made details gave the headquarters its character. The reception and arrival route established a clear first impression, while the working areas needed to support daily use. The design connected the company’s identity with the people using the building, without allowing the reception experience to become separate from the practical workplace behind it.

Our responsibility

We developed the interior design and coordinated the technical information and delivery. Our role covered design authorship, project management and coordination with contractors and specialist suppliers across RIBA stages 1–7. The work connected design intent, technical information and the practical demands of installation.

From drawing to installation

The drawings, material choices and joinery details had to be resolved together. Local craft gave the project a distinctive physical quality, but those details also had to meet the programme and connect with the wider fit-out. Our role was to maintain the design intent while coordinating the decisions needed by the people making and installing the work.

Learning from use

Acoustic performance was a useful lesson: an open, connected workplace still needs careful attention to sound and the different tasks people carry out. Flexibility is not only a matter of leaving space for more desks. It also means considering how meetings, conversations and focused work can coexist as the team changes.

The delivered work

The completed headquarters provided reception, work and meeting settings with capacity for growth. The photographs and drawings show that delivery. Changes in recruitment, headcount or attendance depend on more than the interior, so they are not used here as a measured design outcome.

Role and collaborators

Our role: interior design, project management and technical coordination. Project collaborators included Phil Standon, Blue Shoe Interiors, Bluecrow Joinery and specialist contractors.

A proposal for a connected technology hub

UK Tech Hub

The opportunity

Babble’s UK Tech Hub was proposed for a Grade II listed former brewery. The brief explored how a technology business could bring work, training, client engagement and social activity together while retaining the character of the existing building. The project developed through concept design and remained unbuilt.

The design proposal

We developed layouts, materials, sketches and visualisations for a workplace and innovation hub. The brewery’s history informed the atmosphere and material direction. Different settings were proposed for focused work, learning, conversation and gathering, allowing the building to support more than one way of working.

A building that listens, remembers and speaks

This phrase describes a design ambition: a place whose layout, surfaces and shared settings help people exchange ideas and retain the work of a conversation. It is not a description of an installed sensing system or an operating AI building. The proposal asked how the environment could make the team’s knowledge and activity more visible, while leaving room for quieter and more individual ways of working.

A transformative ecosystem — as intent

The ambition was to connect training, work and social exchange so that each could support the others. A shared kitchen, informal gathering places and workshop settings were proposed as parts of that relationship. Whether they would change behaviour, improve comfort or strengthen collaboration would need to be tested with the people using the completed building.

Sensory and material thinking

The concept drew on our interest in sensory needs, materials and how people experience space. Those interests informed the proposed variety of settings and the visual development. They do not establish health or wellbeing benefits for an unbuilt project. Models, drawings and renders communicate the design intent; they are not photographs of an occupied interior.

Status and next steps

Our work covered the pitch, strategy, concept development and design workshops through RIBA stages 0–3. Further technical development, specialist coordination, user feedback and construction would be required to turn the proposal into a working place. The value of this case is in seeing the design questions and how they were explored, with the distinction between proposal and delivered work kept clear.

The work

We developed the workplace design alongside 3PB’s external brand consultant. The task was to translate an established professional identity into principles for workplace design across different buildings. The work connected brand thinking with the spaces people use, the furniture they touch and the atmosphere they experience.

The London response

The Inner Temple proposal explored how to retain architectural character while accommodating contemporary ways of meeting and working. Colour, materials, lighting and joinery were considered together. Existing objects offered continuity; new elements explored comfort, privacy and connected working. The intention was for the identity to be evident in the experience of the place, including its smallest details.

Project status

The strategy and design studies were developed; the Inner Temple proposals remained unbuilt. The selected visualisations and joinery study show design intent. The building photograph records the existing setting. This is a selection of design material, with internal messaging and detailed operational recommendations withheld.

Workplace strategy and office-refit proposal

The brief

AFJ is a small Birmingham company doing important work in its community. We were commissioned for three weeks of paid consultancy to develop an office-refit proposal and consider structural changes to the business through design. The priority was statutory compliance upgrades and a layout that better supported its people and daily operations.

Connecting the business and the space

We mapped the company’s goals alongside the proposed workplace. The drawings explore where management, accounts, sales, operations and support could sit, how teams could connect, and where meeting, training and shared spaces could support their work. The proposal considered the organisation of the business alongside the arrangement of rooms and desks.

The design response

The layout studies bring working areas, circulation, reception, toilets, storage and shared facilities into one coordinated proposal. Plans and elevations connect these decisions with the physical refit. Statutory compliance upgrades were a focus of the consultancy; the portfolio drawings show proposed design responses, rather than certification or evidence that the upgrades were completed.

What the consultancy produced

The three-week commission produced a design-led workplace strategy and office-refit proposal. The selected sheets show the relationship between company goals, layout decisions and design development. They record consultancy work completed, with proposed physical and organisational changes distinguished from implemented outcomes.

Role and collaborators

Our role: paid design consultancy, workplace strategy, office-refit proposals and consideration of structural business changes. Duration: three weeks. Location: Birmingham. Drawings shown as proposal information.
