As many of you are aware Aerofoil Design is a family business and for the first time we are closing for a holiday together this August.
We will be closed from end of business on Thursday 22nd August and reopen on Monday 2nd September.
We will remain contactable much of the time although our response time will be a little slower and we will not be dealing with any non urgent matters.
We value your custom so please do get in touch as soon as possible if there is anything you would like our support with before we fly off to enjoy some well earned family time!
For those interested, this beautiful sunset was captured near Herne Bay, Kent.
Today we will take a look at one of the largest installations we’ve completed in recent years, undertaken in a few phases. Starting with the first floor in October 2019, continuing with the second floor early 2020 and finally reconfiguring some of the existing furniture on the third floor, as lockdown restrictions were eased and it was safe for our team to do so.
The design for this project evolved from an initial brief from the customer’s American architects and designers, based on plans from their other international offices. We interpreted this and presented several different product options. AJ took samples of the short-listed furniture to the site to showcase possible solutions for the customer and their architects to select from.
Assmann bench desks were chosen, which are electrically height adjustable, allowing the staff to alternate between sitting and standing to work. There were nearly 300 workstations installed, along with metal mobile pedestal drawer units fitted with bespoke seat cushions for those occasional visitors. The customer also evaluated 4 different office chairs before deciding on Wagner ergonomic seating. The vibrant colours for this project were based on the company’s corporate colours.
The highlight of this job has to be the bespoke reception desk. We were sent an image of a similar desk from an overseas office, which the customer wanted to replicate here. Working with our specialist suppliers, we were able to provide this amazing, stylish reception desk, with a solid wood ‘surfboard’ counter top, created from multiple sections of different timbers. The users side features a height adjustable section and the reception front was completed with a wave design vinyl wrap to the architect’s design. A really spectacular image for visitors to be welcomed by when entering their building.
