The width of the floor plate and spacing of the mezzanine steels meant that employees were limited for storage space. The solution - to have a bespoke item made to suit the space and requirements of the business.

A flush fitting unit between the steel columns to the underside of the mezzanine was designed that would incorporate flush fitted data and power points, two double cupboards with shelving and pull-out filing frames at low level and eighteen box cupboards above.

Each cupboard is a brightly coloured square on touch latches that blend in to the wall as a feature hiding the purpose of the construction. It is only by touching and opening the brightly coloured squares that it reveals its purpose.

AIS Awards Judges commented:
The judges just loved this one. Practical, colourful and all their own in-house design - small but beautifully formed!
