New TNEI Glasgow Office
As part of their continued expansion, TNEI’s Glasgow office was moving to a new space on St. Vincent Street in Glasgow. TNEI is an independent specialist energy consultancy, providing advice to organisations operating within the conventional and renewable energy sectors.
Design, fit out and furniture for the new TNEI Glasgow office
TNEI’s new Glasgow office required a fit out in advance of the team moving in. The space of approximately 1600 SqFt per floor had to accommodate around 20 members of staff (per floor). TNEI’s staff combine a skill set that represents the nexus of technology, energy and the environment. Phase 1 of the project was completed in 2020 and phase 2 in 2024.
Phase 1
As often with projects in the centre of Glasgow City that was formed in the early 1800s, the design and fit out team of Amos Beech had to be creative with the confined space, that in this case was situated on the seventh floor.
The new space had to comprise:
desk space for around 20 members of staff
toilet facilities with incorporated shower to accommodate the sportive staff members
a meeting room as well as a multifunctional breakout space for informal meetings, lunch and lone working
The design team incorporated TNEI’s corporate colours in the décor, to align the office with their branding and culture.
On the 21st January 2020, Phase 1 of the new Glasgow office space was opened by Claire Mack, Chief Executive of Scottish Renewables.
We wish TNEI many enjoyable and productive hours in their new workplace!
Phase 2
Following a move into 7th Floor in 2020, TNEI have expanded and taken another floor within the building. Amos Beech were delighted to be involved in the design, fit-out and provision of furniture for their expansion into another floor.
Key challenge we were tasked with, was delivering the sixth floor with a similar feel and layout to Phase 1 whilst enhancing collaboration and agile working environments.
The project involved tasks such as constructing a new server room, re-wiring electrical supplies for new desks, installing data cabling, and managing flooring, decoration, and signage to create an inviting and functional workspace.

Astute Fire Office Move in Glasgow
Astute Fire, a leading fire safety consultancy based in Glasgow, is an existing client who returned to Amos Beech for another major project — their office move. After previously delivering a successful office fit-out for their workspace, we were delighted to be their trusted partner, once again. This time, the project scope involved a comprehensive office move along with a full interior refurbishment. Our team handled everything from partitioning and decoration to flooring, furniture, and design work, ensuring a smooth transition to their new premises.
The Challenge
Astute Fire needed to relocate to a new office space in Glasgow that better suited their growing team and evolving business needs. The challenge was to manage the move with minimal disruption to their operations while also delivering a complete interior fit-out that aligned with their brand identity and provided a productive, modern working environment. Given our previous successful collaboration, Astute Fire trusted Amos Beech to take on this challenge and deliver a seamless experience from start to finish.
Our Approach
We began by working closely with Astute Fire to understand their specific requirements and vision for the new space. Our in-house design team created a tailored interior concept that not only optimised the layout for functionality and collaboration but also incorporated their brand's distinctive style.
This included:
Partitioning: Designing and installing new glass partitions to create separate work zones, enhancing both privacy and openness.
Decoration: A fresh palette of colours and wall finishes to brighten the space, reflect their brand, and inspire their team.
Flooring: Supplying and fitting high-quality flooring solutions that are both durable and stylish, perfectly complementing the new office design.
Furniture: Sourcing and installing contemporary furniture that balances comfort with ergonomics, ensuring the space is both aesthetically pleasing and functional.

Managing the Move
Understanding the importance of a hassle-free move, we also managed the entire office relocation process for Astute Fire. Our team coordinated the logistics, including crate hire and professional furniture removals, ensuring that every item was securely packed, transported, and unpacked with care. By handling the moving process alongside the refurbishment, we minimised downtime and allowed Astute Fire to continue business as usual with minimal disruption.
The Result
The result is a vibrant, well-organised office space that supports collaboration and productivity while reflecting the client’s brand values. Our integrated approach to design, fit-out, and move management meant that Astute Fire could focus on their core business without the stress typically associated with an office move.
A Continued Partnership
This project highlights the ongoing relationship between Amos Beech and Astute Fire. As a returning client, they were confident in our ability to deliver on time, on budget, and to the highest standards. We’re proud to be Astute Fire's trusted partner for their office needs and look forward to continuing to support them as they grow.

A new multifunctional space for Woolgar Hunter
Woolgar Hunter is an engineering consultancy specialising in the fields of civil, structural & geo-environmental engineering. Their philosophy is to consider the design and construction process as one and in that respect very much resembles Amos Beech’s, stategy, design & build approach.
Top floor break-out space needed an overhaul
Their existing break-out space on the top floor of their Glasgow office needed to be better furnished to facilitate collaboration, breakout, and to create an entertaining/presenting space for both internal use and for external clients.
A wall mounted presentation screen was positioned at one end and a small tea prep with under counter glass fronted fridges for cold drinks at the opposite end. Woolgar Hunter replaced their pool table with a new one and with its removable glass top it doubles up as a meeting table when not being used. Tiered seating units with soft seat pads and laptop stands were positioned in front of the presentation screen and behind that a couple of tall A-frame tables were used to give layout space for the Engineer’s drawings and discussions away from the open plan desk area. They also served as counters for chats and drinks.
The tiered seating and A-frame tables are mobile to allow the space to be easily reconfigured if required.
The client has embraced the wellbeing benefits of having living plants in the space which thrive due to the natural daylight.
The space has been well received and used by staff and visitors and we are currently considering using acoustic lighting and adding colour blocking to some of the walls.
