BREAKOUT SPACE DESIGN AND FIT OUT PROJECT, SOUTHAMPTON.

SPI Lasers chose to partner with Spectrum Workplace for a complete design and fit out project for their new staff breakout and canteen space in Hedge End, Southampton. SPI Lasers (or Southampton Photonics Inc as it was originally known) was a spin-out from Southampton University’s Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC). SPI quickly established itself as a global leader in the design and manufacture of industrial fibre lasers. Since 2008 SPI have been wholly owned by the TRUMPF Group, a German high-tech company.

THE RIGHT PARTNER FOR A BREAKOUT SPACE DESIGN AND FIT OUT PROJECT IN SOUTHAMPTON.

SPI Lasers were looking for a company local to Southampton that they could work with. Especially someone who would listen to their brief and understand their specific requirements. It was also important to them that the fit out company would take on the complete breakout space design and fit out project. Our design team were able to work with the client to achieve the seating numbers needed. In addition our design team created an breakout space design that was in line with their branding. Once we were on site they were able to give us full responsibility for the complete fitout projects.

One thing that set Spectrum Workplace apart at the design stage was the way we worked with them. The layout and design of the breakout space was developed closely with the client which they appreciated. Overall they were very impressed with the way the Spectrum team delivered a breakout space design that the whole team would enjoy and be proud of.
