Essence, one of the world’s largest independent buyers of digital media, had rapidly outgrown their cramped and disconnected workspace environment in Soho and was in need of a completely new office.
Â
Â
The big move to support their company growth came from the help of commercial interior design and fit-out company Peldon Rose. The first step was to move them into UK House on Oxford Street, London.
Â
Â
Peldon Rose then tipped the traditional office design on its head. Visitors are now welcomed into the office by the Box Park-style bleachers, with a hidden roof terrace to hold small meetings.
Â
With exposed ductwork, concrete floors and industrial lighting, the whole workspace feels like an urban London district. The office features a lunch area come coffee shop where their staff, the ‘Essentials’, can go to eat, socialise and hold internal meetings. It is an agile working environment at its best.
Â
Â
A quirky detail Peldon Rose included into the new office was to include two piaggioÂ’s spread around the space to provide a quick pit stop coffee break.
Â
Â
Hidden behind giant, reclaimed double doors, which Peldon Rose sourced in Bethnal Green, lay EssenceÂ’s meditation workspace. A workspace of complete calm and tranquillity with trees, moss walls and grass benches.
Â
This new workspace is a truly cool design.
