Office space planning for Red Rock Power in Edinburgh

Red Rock Power, the renewable and sustainable energy company based on Princes Street in Edinburgh, was spread over two wings on separate floors in the same office building. When additional office space became available on the fifth floor, Red Rock Power asked Amos Beech to plan the space in such a way that the whole company could be located on one level and facilitate greater collaboration.

Office space planning, fit-out and furniture for Red Rock Power in Edinburgh

Our fit out team knocked through the wall to connect the west wing to the east wing and created a central ‘heart’ with a collaboration space, complete with a storage wall of lockers by Spacestor and a biophilia moss wall by Benholm.

The Red Rock Power office is a busy and often noise environment and some acoustic treatments were needed so we fitted acoustic hanging screens made by Friends of Wilson from Glasgow. Meeting space was also limited so we added ‘pods’ to create informal collaboration areas at the ‘heart’ of the office that offer an excellent alternative to booking a meeting room and provide both quiet work space and dining too.

Whilst the pods are perfect for personal phone calls we also supplied phone booths for privacy and quiet away from the noisy office (both booths designed and manufactured by Joint Design Direction, from Birmingham) . Further soft seating and meeting room furniture was supplied to complement the existing office furniture.

In an area that both separates and unites the two office wings, sits the newly fitted tea prep area and a meeting/dining table providing a great space for team breakfasts and lunches. Unfortunately our photographer planned his shoot on the wrong day…
