Delivered a flexible 10,000 sq ft office without disruption
Campbell Lutyens is a leading global and independent private capital advisor, with offices in London, Paris, New York, Chicago, Hong Kong, Singapore and Seoul.
Fluid worked alongside design and fit-out partner Zentura to deliver a flexible furniture solution for Campbell Lutyens’ refurbished Mayfair office. Using the FluidSpace Flex furniture rental scheme, the project allowed the company to transform their workspace without committing to a full refurbishment despite having less than two years remaining on their lease.
The result is a 10,000 sq ft office that supports collaboration, staff growth and hybrid working while avoiding unnecessary capital expenditure.
The Project: Creating A Flexible Office Without Long Term Commitments
Hybrid working had changed how Campbell Lutyens’ Mayfair office was being used. Continued company growth had led to overcrowding, and the workspace no longer reflected the collaborative and dynamic culture of the organisation.
A redesign was required to enable better collaboration and allow room for future expansion. However, with the lease on the building set to expire in less than two years, a full refurbishment was not considered a viable option.
Fluid worked with design and fit-out partner Zentura to analyse how the workspace could be redesigned to support Campbell Lutyens’ long term objectives while avoiding significant capital investment.
The final design introduced an open-plan layout that encourages collaboration while incorporating office pods and booths to provide quieter areas for focused work.
The addition of space on the fourth floor enabled a more spacious workplace layout and allowed the office to accommodate continued staff growth.
A furniture led approach reduced the need for disruptive construction work while significantly increasing the flexibility of the workspace. This project also became one of the early implementations of Fluid’s FluidSpace Flex furniture rental scheme, allowing Campbell Lutyens to trial different workplace solutions without committing to large upfront costs.
To minimise disruption during the transition, the furniture installation was completed in two phases. The fourth floor was fitted out first, followed by the second floor. This phased approach ensured all Campbell Lutyens staff were able to continue working throughout the project.
The renovated workspace now supports collaboration, staff wellbeing and future growth while providing a more engaging and functional environment for employees.
