HNW Architects were asked to create an inspiring, modern, safe and smart environment that promotes a sense of calm and a sense of belonging.

The brief provided led to the creation of a forward-thinking office for Wates Group which will continue to evolve with the new needs and expectations of its people, customers, and visitors — adapting to a hybrid work model that blends the physical and digital. Hunts were up to the task of procuring furniture to complement the amazing space designed by HNW.

All product finishes were carefully selected for sustainability in line with Wates' Zero Waste and Zero Carbon environmental targets for 2025.

Where possible, products have been selected based on their durability, ease of maintenance, recycled content, and recyclability.

Paul’s support in getting our selection of furniture within budget was invaluable and his patience with us was much appreciated to enable us to get the furniture that helps to create some amazing space in our new office. The delivery and installation team were friendly and efficient and followed our site requirements well so that everything was installed correctly and safely. Everyone who has seen our new office has been bowled over with the look and feel of the space and the furniture is certainly a key part of this
