Creating a workspace where people don’t just survive, but thrive, has never mattered more. With many employees embracing the possibilities of hybrid working, making sure that you provide a workplace where people feel productive, safe, comfortable, and confident is vital. A workspace where people feel valued and motivated makes sense on every level – and that’s the type of space we can create for you.

Whether it’s refurbishing an older building, creating modern New York loft style spaces in an otherwise generic office suite, or taking care of the behind-the-scenes details like ventilation and sustainable energy solutions, we work harder to make your workspace work for the people who use it.

We deliver over fifty fitouts and refurbishments a year, for clients across a wide range of sectors from international premium spirits firms and leading leisure brands to public sector organisations and innovative tech firms. Over 75% of our work in this area is repeat business from key clients. We regularly handle multi-million-pound commercial office projects and are as at home creating inspiring spaces in new builds as we are refitting and refurbishing spaces in older, listed buildings. Our projects can be found across the UK, and we frequently work on multiple sites (for example in Scotland and England) for the same client, giving their premises across the UK a sense of unity and ensuring consistency of quality.

Plus, because of the way that Morris & Spottiswood works with other teams within the group who have experience in other sectors, we’re able to deliver not just your office refurbishment, but also bring other elements of your business – for example, manufacturing sites – up to date at the same time.

We’re also able to work with other experts within the Morris & Spottiswood group of companies to offer a full range of services, so we’re able to handle every element of the job from design to delivery. We have a network of sites across the UK, so our local supply chains are robust and effective, enabling us to deliver outstanding workspaces time after time. Got plans in place? Not a problem, we’re also able to work with your own design team to deliver great results.

We create spaces that are functional and flexible to meet your needs and ensure that your workplace doesn’t just work for your business, but for the people in it. We’ve delivered numerous “working well” projects, so understand that it’s not just the places people work within your office that matter, but the spaces they use in addition to this (such as kitchens and bathrooms), so we ensure that these spaces are as thoughtfully delivered as the rest of the project. We understand that employee comfort and well-being is essential and make sure that the spaces we create accommodate their needs.

On the subject of spaces, we don’t deliver generic spaces and obvious offices. For example, we partnered with a leading international spirit firm, to create a New York loft style space over four floors, which included meeting zones, board rooms, office space, communal areas, and even bars.

We also understand that it’s not just the working environment that you care about – there’s an increasing need to consider the wider environment and move towards net zero. We’re already making good progress on our own journey to net zero and have a number of plans and provisions in place to build sustainability into every project we deliver. We’re able to help our clients realise their own carbon and sustainability goals and can even work in partnership with our clients to help them shape and progress their journey to net zero. From incorporating EV charging points in car parks, to replacing old lighting with energy efficient LED lighting, or even installing plants and greenery, we’ve got the expertise and experience to ensure you meet all the relevant sustainability and energy efficiency regulations that apply to your business.

When it comes to the technology you need for your business to thrive, we’re totally plugged into your requirements. From IT and seamless audio-visual to BMS controls that allow you to control outputs to match demand, so if the office is quiet things can be scaled back accordingly.

We’ve been delivering world-class workspaces for many years now and there’s no denying that office culture – and the needs and expectations of your workforce – have changed post-lockdown. With many people expressing a preference for working from home, or hybrid working, the space you provide for your staff has never mattered more.

A functional space is no longer enough. Adding a pool table to the breakroom isn’t going to cut it anymore. Your staff expect a space that works for them and where they feel comfortable, cared for and which reflects the things that matter to them. We know what works and how to make it work for your business, so we can create offices with spaces for private working – such as pods and soundproof spaces for calls and online conferences – as well as room for your team to work as one and collaborate on projects.

We can help you work out what will work best for you and your team, we can deliver existing designs, we can even help make your workspace more energy efficient. It’s all about working together – and us working harder to meet your needs and exceed your expectations.
