Transforming your tired old office space into something suitable for current working practices and future plans involves more than just moving the furniture. A commercial office fit-out might refer to an initial fitting in a new building or converting an old building into new use as an office. It can also refer to giving an existing office space a complete reworking.
When you opt for an office fit-out you’re making an ambitious investment in the future of your workspace.
Flow Office can make sure your commercial office fit-out achieves all of your objectives. With our innovative approach to office design, interiors and office furniture, we’ve got the entire fit-out process covered.
What exactly is an office fit-out and what does it involve?
A commercial office fit-out project transforms an office interior into a state where it’s both functional and in a good condition within which to work. It should not only be a place that meets a set of basic requirements but should also be somewhere that people want to work.
Shell & Core
A shell and core fit-out is an empty shell property, usually in the condition which the developers left it post-construction, that is then ready to be turned into a commercial office space with the help of designers and a commercial office fit-out company.
Category A Fit-Out
A Category A fit-out involves more than a shell and core fit-out, creating a functional space that may still need furnishing and further design attention. It will generally just contain an open plan finish with the bare necessities. This will include basic internal finishes, air conditioning and heating, and utilities such as working plugs, lighting and plumbing.
Category B Fit-Out
A Category B Fit-Out creates the finished office space that you need to achieve your business goals. It will involve the creation of discreet spaces within the office, the overall design, furniture and layout to compliment your company culture and overall aesthetic.
As a complete commercial fit-out, it will leave the office ready for use with all of the necessary workstations and furniture in place.
A Category B Fit-Out is an opportunity to create an office space that can help your business grow and develop. It takes a generic or outdated space and turns it into something that meets the evolving needs of your business.
