Transforming Your Office
Refurbishing an office is a step by step process involving redesign, project management, office renovation and communication. Knowledge of buildings and understanding of your premises is a basis for any office refurbishment, coupled with the objectives of the business in terms of staff headcount, adopting new ways of working, adding collaborative spaces, upgrade of services and return on capital expenditure.
An office refurbishment can be carried out by anyone, but Fusion takes the time to get to know and understand how a business operates before any refurbishment work is carried out. This allows us to create an effective refurbishment plan that’s tailored around both your business and the people that work there. Having a close working relationship enables us to plan a refurbishment that gets the most out of your office space.

Office Design and Build Islington
Office refurb design is a balance between the opportunities of a new office interior, and the constraints of existing finishes, retained elements, and practical necessities. Commercial refurbishment can be the most demanding type of project to undertake primarily as work often takes place around occupied spaces.
Refurbishing a business interior typically starts with a layout, based upon the specific objectives of a client, more people, more meeting rooms, cooler climate or more flexible accommodation…whatever is the driver of the office change. Once a layout is agreed upon, design experience comes into play, this is when our design and build team can help with office refurbishment ideas
Creative Design and Furniture
Statement furniture is a great way to accentuate the positive, using iconic or eye-catching furniture to create a talking point is a flexible and cost-effective update method.
Extensive use of existing furniture in a closed or open plan environment usually translates into the same old tired demeanour but an oasis of new can be a good value for money or equally a waste of CAPEX. The trick is to make the best use of existing assets without undermining the refurbished office.
Careful project management is always in the background of any successful office revamp. Move plans show existing and new staff plans and help to communicate transitions in a graphical way. Timeline schedule of works convey the project program and set out dates for each phase. This trinity of information…program, moves, and scope of works…are the key deliverables in any project.
Purchasing and logistics then devolve from the key parameters. Scheduling of trades and labour, furniture moves and removals crates, all fit into the bigger picture. Coordination with IT support to ensure desktop changes are factored in help all parts of the business, and those of the refurbishment team, work together for a smooth process.
If your newly refurbished office isn’t quite what you expected or you’re looking to add something more to your current office, then our refurbishment phase II may be an option for you. Carried out by our office fitters we can improve your already existing commercial fit-out.
Phase II commences with the strip-out of the existing office fit-out, retaining parts of the Teapoint, reception and several meeting rooms. Retaining elements of an existing office interior is a typical difference between refurb and fit-out as well as moving staff in several phases. If you find yourself searching for Office Fit Out Islington, then be sure to contact the team at Fusion Office Design today.
Refurbishment involves stakeholders. Staff and management will have wish-lists. IT and Comms must be involved in the process. Landlord and the local authority can be gatekeepers to be included. The office design process is usually the most engaging part of the process. Living in a building whilst it’s being refurbished is the downside. Considerate project management is key to minimising disruption, communicating with staff and keeping the process on track. The best project management will also be flexible, adapting to challenges during the process.
An office refurbishment specification is a balance between renewal and retaining the existing. Analysis of upfront costs against the potential for future failure underpins many decisions when creating a detailed scope of works. Supporting the whole process are detailed drawings of office layouts, building services, and relocation phases. 3D visuals often support the design process and help to set expectations. Office furniture is often the most visible feature and a good office refurbishment will incorporate furniture at the earliest design stage.
The refurbishment of an office should take into consideration several factors such as the number of people working there and whether it’s an independent or group working environment. Planning out everything from the space people need to the colour of the walls is important; no matter how big or small a factor might seem each element helps to ensure your office refurbishment in London is successful both in the way it looks and works.

Depending upon the scope of works your project may require building regulation approval. We will advise you accordingly, however, as a general rule of thumb if the means of escape, in the case of fire, are being affected in any way then yes. Also, if the purpose group of the building is changing and if any changes are taking place to the structure then again building regulation approval must be sought.
Similarly, if your refurbishment makes any changes to the number of toilet facilities, insulation, protected fire escape route or compartmentalisation of the building then approval must be sought.

- The existing decor or layout is tired and dated or no longer suited for its purpose
- Extra space has been acquired and needs refurbishing to suit the existing office
- There’s new competition and a fresh look is required to make your business more appealing
- When staff become miserable and the furniture and space need to be more adaptive to the people using it
- Repairs are needed constantly to keep furniture or parts of the office together
