Oliver Bonas Head Office Refurbishment in Surrey
As a design-led retail brand known for bold colour and character, the refurbished office needed to provide an inspiring environment for employees, make a strong impression on visiting clients and support the business’s changing workplace needs. The project involved a complete commercial office transformation, including bespoke joinery, updated interior finishes and carefully planned layouts to improve functionality, collaboration and staff wellbeing.
Creating a Creative and Functional Head Office Workspace
Oliver Bonas approached us to carry out a comprehensive head office refurbishment in Surrey, with the objective of creating a modern, vibrant workplace that reflected the brand’s distinctive identity and creative culture.
Known for its bold, colourful and design-led retail approach, Oliver Bonas required a headquarters that carried the same personality through every space. The refurbished office needed to inspire staff, impress visiting clients and provide a flexible working environment capable of supporting the evolving needs of the business.
The brief called for a full transformation of the existing commercial office, incorporating bespoke joinery, upgraded finishes and carefully considered layouts to improve both day-to-day functionality and the overall atmosphere of the workspace.
Bespoke Office Joinery, Fit-Out and Interior Refurbishment Works
The office refurbishment included the design, manufacture and installation of bespoke joinery throughout the Oliver Bonas headquarters. This covered reception areas, breakout spaces, meeting rooms and staff kitchen facilities, with each element tailored to reflect the brand’s distinctive style.
Feature joinery was incorporated to create standout design moments across the workplace, including a bespoke reception desk, custom storage solutions and tailored seating areas designed to encourage collaboration, informal meetings and staff interaction.
The project also involved upgraded flooring, lighting and decorative finishes throughout the office, creating a cohesive and elevated interior across all areas. Dedicated breakout and social spaces were introduced to support staff wellbeing, offering more relaxed environments away from traditional desk-based workstations.
Electrical first-fix and second-fix works, together with any required partitioning and ceiling works, were completed to support the new office layout, services requirements and overall design intent.
Delivering the Surrey Head Office Refurbishment in Four Weeks
The project was delivered through close collaboration with the Oliver Bonas internal team, ensuring the completed workplace accurately reflected the company’s brand identity, culture and ways of working.
Works were carefully sequenced to minimise disruption to ongoing business operations. A phased delivery programme allowed key office areas to remain functional throughout the refurbishment, helping the business continue operating during the four-week programme.
Bespoke joinery components were manufactured off-site to exact specifications before installation, supporting both a high-quality finish and an efficient on-site process. Regular communication with the client enabled design refinements and decisions to be made collaboratively, ensuring the final office fit-out remained aligned with the original creative vision.
The joinery installation, decorating, flooring and electrical trades were coordinated closely throughout the project to maintain a smooth programme and deliver the refurbishment to the required standard and timescale.
A Vibrant, Brand-Led Office Space for Oliver Bonas
The completed office refurbishment has transformed the Oliver Bonas Surrey headquarters into a striking, functional and creative workspace that reflects the brand’s vibrant identity.
Bespoke joinery throughout the office provides practical storage, seating and workspace solutions while creating a strong visual character across the building. The new breakout areas and social spaces have been particularly well received by staff, providing welcoming settings for collaboration, informal meetings and wellbeing during the working day.
Overall, the project has successfully repositioned the Oliver Bonas headquarters as a true extension of the brand. It now provides a workplace that employees are proud to use, supports the day-to-day needs of the business and leaves a lasting impression on clients and visitors.
