Maximising Retail Potential with 'Move in & Ready to Start Business' Service

Background

When Brighton-based PeaceProperty Ltd wanted to quickly transform their new 'bare shell' acquisition into a vibrant and eye-catching home letting retail/office facility, MD Matt Peace selected Woodman, on the basis that "they demonstrated a very professional and attention to detail approach - to get it right for us."

The Challenge

With a limited budget, Matt wanted a welcoming and efficient interior with space for 3 desks and a dedicated storage/office area. The other 'must haves' were point of sale fixture and fittings, a simple, attractive window display to highlight available properties and comfortable seating for clients.

TheSolution

To fulfil the brief Woodman prepared a unique 'ready to move in and start business' fixed cost and time proposal, that included everything from space planning, design, decoration and furniture/fittings consisting of desks and bespoke storage facility.

Design & Decoration

To highlight the striking furniture and fittings and harmonise with the company's burgundy and cream corporate identity, the interior colours were predominantly white with muted greys.

Furniture

As space was severely limited mini rectangular desks with under desk pedestals were recommended together with white 12mm laminate tops and sliver frames. For long-term comfort and value ergonomic "Netwin" chairs from Sedus, with black leather seat pads and light grey mesh backs were supplied for the sales personnel.

Storage

Reflecting the silver framed desks a custom built titanium finished storage wall system was built, creating a partial three-quarter wall divide towards the rear of the shop, obscuring the door to the WC and creating a small private office area for storage, faxing etc.

Front of Shop & Point of Sale

Pre strung cables incorporating acrylic pockets were installed in the front window. They provided a simple and stylish method that enabled staff to insert and quickly change details of available properties. To reflect a similar 'look' inside, Acrylic leaflet holders were installed onto the walls.

Seating

To utilise all the space available, the unused 'infill' under the front bay window was transformed into an attractive and comfortable seating area for prospective clients by fitting a bespoke burgundy leather seat pad.

Conclusion

Summing up his experience of the project Matt Peace said, "Overall, Woodman's design, plan and build really transformed a dull boring area into a bright, inviting and welcoming retail environment that reflects our professional and business ethos.

From start to finish our project was carried out without any hassles whatsoever. Without a doubt, I would recommend their 'ready to move in and start business' retail fitout service every time."
