Awards, refurbishments and making offices COVID-19 secure

Here’s an update on the latest news from Cityspace...

We’re a finalist in the Mixology2020 awards!

We are delighted to announce that Cityspace has been shortlisted as a finalist for the Mixology20 Awards for our design and fit-out of Raymond James’ office at 25 Ropemaker Street, EC2.

Each year, the Mixology Awards celebrate the very best of the projects, products and people in the commercial interiors industry. This year, due to the coronavirus, the winners won’t be announced until 2021, but in the meantime the whole team at Cityspace is extremely chuffed to make the finalists in our first ever awards entry!

Keep calm and refurbish your office

Despite the continued coronavirus shutdown of many workplaces, the world has not stopped and clients have been taking advantage of their shuttered offices to complete refurbishment works.

For our client, the Japanese multinational Marubeni, we’ve reduced the floor plan of their offices in Gresham Street, EC2, from 3 floors to 2 in order to precede a pending lease break and therefore deliver significant savings in rent moving ahead.

In New Brook Street, Mayfair, we have renovated the offices of alternative investment manager Hengistbury Investment Partners, upgrading a fit-out we completed for them 8 years ago to create a stylish, modern and flexible new workspace.

Also in the West End, we are currently relocating our existing client, the art dealer Edward Speelman, to create a new gallery and offices in Saville Row.  

Making offices COVID-19 secure

For the past 3 months, the team at Cityspace has been very busy helping clients to replan, reconfigure and retrofit their offices to create a safe, social distanced environment for both staff and visitors.

Deploying our 10 Standards, we have been helping businesses create workplace risk assessments and then install COVID-secure products, including reception and workstation screens, signage, barriers and hand sanitising stations.

Many of our clients are also upgrading the filters on the air conditioning systems by installing HEPA filters as a means of capturing airborne coronaviruses that enter the system.
