Fit out and furniture
Intelligent space solutions were provided for the office that included tea prep areas on both floors and sufficient working space for 200 engineers and other office workers.
Raised access floors were installed on all floors by the our fit out team as well as carpeting and partitions. The raised access floors allow for a highly flexible space planning
Bench desking was installed with cable management providing full containment from the floor box to the desk top.
Mesh back task chairs with height adjustable arms were provided for each workstation position and an under-desk mobile pedestal (set of lockable drawers).
Separate break-out and mess rooms were provided as well as changing facilities and clean/dirty locker units with changing benches.
This facility has been designed to provide a temporary office facility to house engineers and construction professionals whilst they design and build a new combined heat and power station for BP’s oil and gas facilities in Kinneil, Central Scotland.
The office furniture supplied, meets with the tight budgetry constraints that this construction project required whilst retaining a high quality feel space solutions and a robust product that will continue to look good for many years to come.
CONFERENCE FURNITURE LAW SOCIETY SCOTLAND
The Law Society Scotland were moving to new open plan offices in Edinburgh next to the EICC and were keen to provide a state of the art venue with conference furniture for its staff, members and visitors.
Following consultation with Simon Laird Architects Edinburgh, Simon pointed them in the direction of Amos Beech to discuss the office furnishing ideas and view the often copied but never matched Confair table system by Wilkhahn. Confair is a large format conference table system that can be fully integrated with the very latest technology whilst discretely hiding cables to ensure the appearance is never compromised. Understandably, they immediately saw the benefits which include single person operation and very compact storage. The design team helped them select their finishes and the tables were brilliantly set off with the Casala Lynx chair which provided them with a multi-use chair suitable for both Conference and Theatre style seating.
The conference chairs have a very clever frame design that allows linking to take place within the frame and without any additional securing points – this ingenious design allows for rapid deployment and change which was very important due to the multi-function use of the space.
Credenza storage from UK office furniture manufacturer Verco was selected as having the right blend of functionality and solid wood detailing that complemented the high quality table system. These are available in a variety of widths and in this case were specified at 1000mm wide.
Side conference rooms were similarly specified and the result is an oasis of business like calm and understated elegance which provides the Law Society with the right level of ambience and longevity.
Office fit out Edinburgh
Amos Beech has just completed a challenging office fit out in the heart of Edinburgh. The offices of Scottish Salmon needed an upgrade. The Georgian splendour of Edinburgh’s new town always makes for an interesting challenge when our customers require alterations and changes to their offices.
Here we were asked to create an additional cellular office space in Edinburgh and make use of as much glass as possible.
Office fit out Edinburgh
When we carried out our initial survey we discovered an original archway had been plaster boarded up in a previous alteration and we were able to reinstate this with a glass door and adjacent frameless glazing panels.
This in conjunction with the glass wall separating the new office from its adjacent space has given a very bright aspect to a room that could have been very dark as it is right in the centre of the building.
New carpet and a fresh coat of paint have lifted the room in to something much more modern. A bespoke desking solution was selected by the client to provide sufficient storage space and enough primary work space for a busy PA to the Directors, allowing her to carry out her duties efficiently and effectively.
