This 1930's building, which was partially tenanted, was refurbished in phases. The
first phase was refurbished to provide a modern showroom for Giroflex, a Swiss office
furniture company. The showroom, which is its main UK showroom, was converted to
reflect the hi tech, "state of the art" office furniture which this company manufactures
and markets. The showroom uses glass partitioning, glass flooring and an abundance
of spotlights to showcase the furniture.
The second phase saw the refurbishment of the third floor and included the addition
of a new fourth floor. The third and final phase involved the first and second floors.
The result is a modern office offering the landlord a good return on his investment
and the tenants attractive offices, with flexibility for 21st century demands.
