The move was not only about securing a larger space but also about creating a dynamic and collaborative environment that would encourage employees to return to the office, attract and retain top talent, and boost overall productivity and motivation. Recognising the importance of client experience, Oldfields aimed to establish an impressive front-of-house area with a striking ‘meet and greet’ space, premium meeting rooms, and a hospitality area designed to leave a lasting impression.
Oldfields envisioned a workspace that was not only highly functional but also visually striking, embodying a modern, professional, and welcoming atmosphere. The design needed to reflect the company’s brand identity while fostering a sense of energy, creativity, and collaboration among employees. A key focus was creating a contemporary and inviting environment that would encourage staff to return to the office, with carefully curated spaces that balanced comfort with productivity.
The office was designed to feature high-quality finishes, stylish furnishings, and a layout that promoted natural light and openness. A seamless blend of aesthetics and practicality was essential, ensuring that the workspace not only looked impressive but also supported employee well-being and efficiency. From an eye-catching reception and hospitality area to well-equipped meeting rooms and breakout zones, every detail was considered to create a professional yet engaging workplace that left a lasting impression on both employees and clients alike.
One of the key challenges for Oldfields in their office relocation project was creating a workspace that would successfully attract employees back into the office while also accommodating the evolving needs of a modern workforce. To achieve this, the new space needed to integrate the latest technology, ensuring ease of use and seamless connectivity for both in-office employees and remote or satellite workers, allowing them to feel fully engaged and part of the team. The existing office was outdated and in desperate need of a full refurbishment, requiring not only a fresh, modern aesthetic but also significant infrastructure upgrades, including a completely new air handling system to enhance comfort and air quality. Additionally, the project needed to address practical concerns such as the provision of extra WC facilities to support a growing team. Balancing these technical and functional requirements while delivering an inspiring and high-performance workspace was a critical challenge that Oldfields aimed to overcome with the expertise of Rhino.
The completed office transformation successfully met Oldfields’ objectives, delivering a modern, dynamic, and inspiring workspace that supports both business growth and employee well-being. The refreshed environment has encouraged staff to return to the office, encourages greater collaboration, productivity, and engagement. State-of-the-art technology ensures seamless connectivity for hybrid workers, while the upgraded infrastructure, including a new air handling system and additional facilities, enhances comfort and functionality. The striking design, featuring high-quality finishes and an impressive client-facing area, creates a lasting impact, reinforcing Oldfields’ brand identity. Overall, the new office provides a vibrant and efficient workspace that not only meets current needs but is also adaptable for future expansion.
