62-64 Cornhill Levels 4 & 7

This commercial office refurbishment London project at 62–64 Cornhill formed the final phase of a wider programme to modernise the building and enhance its appeal to prospective occupiers. Located in the heart of the City of London, the refurbishment transformed Levels 4 and 7 into high-quality, flexible workspaces designed to meet the expectations of modern businesses while supporting the client’s long-term asset strategy.

Commercial Office Refurbishment London: Design Development and Workplace Strategy

Starting with an initial furniture layout, our team developed the concept into a fully coordinated workplace design. While both floors share a consistent design language, carefully selected variations in colour palettes, finishes and furniture create a distinct identity for each space.

As a result, the building benefits from a cohesive aesthetic while providing flexibility for future tenants. Furthermore, these subtle design differences add character and individuality without compromising consistency across the wider refurbishment programme.

Commercial Office Refurbishment London with Flexible Workplace Design

To support agile and hybrid working, we introduced generous breakout areas and premium tea points on both floors. In addition, carefully selected finishes elevate the workplace experience and create a welcoming environment for occupiers and visitors alike.

Throughout the design process, we refined the material palette and furniture selections to balance individuality with continuity. Meanwhile, enhancements to the lighting design improved spatial clarity and reinforced the contemporary character of each office floor.

Consequently, the completed spaces encourage collaboration, wellbeing and productivity while providing the flexibility required by modern occupiers.

Delivering a Commercial Office Refurbishment London Project in an Occupied Building

Delivering the refurbishment within a live commercial building presented several challenges. As neighbouring floors remained occupied throughout the programme, our team carefully planned each phase of the works to minimise disruption.

Therefore, we implemented strict noise management procedures and maintained regular communication with building stakeholders. At the same time, we enforced rigorous health and safety standards to ensure the building remained fully operational.

Furthermore, proactive project management and regular site inspections helped maintain programme momentum and achieve key milestones. As a result, we completed the works on schedule while preserving a positive experience for existing tenants.

Outcome

The completed commercial office refurbishment London project delivered a seamless handover and prepared both floors for immediate occupation. The result is a collection of high-quality workplace environments that combine flexibility, functionality and contemporary design within one of the City’s most established commercial locations.

By balancing occupier experience, landlord objectives and operational constraints, the scheme successfully enhances the long-term value and appeal of the building.
