Fastned Charging

Client Brief

Fastned Charging had their existing London offices that required the expertise of our London interior designers to reconfigure their offices to provide a more flexible workspace. Our client wanted more meeting rooms created, as well as phone booths, to provide the option of more privacy when needed.  They also wanted to expand their break out space to offer an alternative workspace to facilitate team meeting and collaboration with colleagues.  The client came with some strong design ideas which our design team worked closely with them to adapt and incorporate within their office space, whilst managing the clients budget.

New Meeting Rooms and Phone Booths

Meeting room with company branded glass manifestation.

Within the main office space there were two existing cupboards that were reconfigured by removing walls and doors.  The framework of the doors remained in position and new glazing and doors were fitted to create a new meeting room and a neatly proportioned booth, providing necessary privacy.

Through the lobby area, another small meeting room and phone booth was created, offering a variety of work spaces and options to accommodate individual preferences in the way they choose to work.  This meeting room and booth were positioned off of a new angled wall which guides the occupants through from the office space and into the communal breakout space.

The main focal point and elements of the interior design scheme for this space involved bespoke bleacher seating, offering a versatile workspace solution for team meetings and collaboration, as well as a space for staff to relax and take well earned breaks.  A key consideration for our interior designers when designing the bleacher seating, was to incorporate their existing server cabinet within the bleacher seating structure.  The carefully thought out design successfully allowed the necessary ventilation and access to the server cabinet to be an integral and seamless part of the bleacher seating.

Our designers worked closely with the client to specify a suitable flooring that met their budget, whilst also achieving the desired look that the client was hoping for.  A concrete effect luxury vinyl tile was installed creating a sleek modern aesthetic, whilst complimenting the flooring in other spaces.

The part suspended ceiling in this space was removed, opened up and sprayed black to coordinate with the rest of the offices.  White acoustic panels were also suspended alongside modern LED lighting.

Their existing tea point was neatened up by adjusting a cupboard to integrate a fridge, giving it a tidier overall aesthetic.

Colour Scheme

The interior design scheme throughout the spaces, incorporated the company’s branded colours pushing their corporate image through using a vivid, bright yellow and contrasting black colour palette.  The accents of yellow appeared on painted feature walls, seat pad cushions on the bleacher seating and carpet within the meeting rooms.  Alongside the yellow, black features in the sprayed exposed ceiling, carpet floor tiles and the aluminium frames around the glazing.

The Results

The once dated offices are now sleek and modern displaying the clients corporate image through the contrasting yellow and black finishes.  The staff now have multiple spaces offering versatility and privacy to go about their working day, as well as a breakout area to collaborate in or take a well earned break.
