REFERENCE | 8 Laurence Pountney Hill

Tucked away in a green pocket of London is over 4,000 sqm of recently refurbished workspace. The design brief? Create an elegant, refined and professional aesthetic that sets the interior apart from other offices in the local area.

As well as retaining and celebrating the building’s beautiful original features, bc workspace chose to keep the colour palette fairly neutral, leaving it open for future tenants to add their own spin on the space.

Our Tessera Cloudspace carpet tiles were specified throughout the office areas, chosen for its durability and design.

💬 “Tessera Cloudscape offers a beautiful aesthetic that really complemented the building’s interior space. While neutral in colour, it still offers so much pattern and texture, which we love. The design also means it is very forgiving if the substrate itself isn’t 100% or in the event of food and beverage spillages.”

SHORTLISTED – Sphera Elite b+ 🏆

We’re delighted that Sphera Elite b+ has been shortlisted in the Recycled Product of the Year category at this year’s National Recycling Awards.

Boasting an impressively 50% lowered, third-party verified embodied carbon (when compared to the standard Sphera offering), it’s a fantastic example of how we can change the perception of vinyl flooring and expand its use to a wider market. Achieved through bio-circular PVC, derived from used cooking oil, and 43% recycled content, as well as being manufactured using 100% renewable electricity and zero-waste practices.
