CentralNic is a leading provider of internet infrastructure services to an international community. Headquartered in London, United Kingdom, CentralNic were in the process of up-scaling their workplace. CentralNic’s goal was to create a contemporary, stylish and inviting hub for their employees and clients. The internet-service based company approached Direct Painting Group with the task of renovating their existing workspace – with the goal to add focus, depth, and texture to the work environment.
From conception to completion, we utilised a client-facing approach to ensure that the transformed workspace met CentralNic’s expectations and design vision. The CentralNic office incorporates bespoke furniture, neutral hues, and distinctly contrasting textures – glass, brick, and stone – each adding a layer of texture to the workplace.
A bold white design background consistently features throughout the office and immediately sets the tone for the workspace. However, the addition of bespoke furniture and authentic architectural design adds colour and intensity to the interior.
Additionally, we fitted tailored Crittall windows throughout the office to add an industrial element to this workspace. Overall, the steel-framed windows make the space look bigger and creates an open-plan feel, providing a stylish and comfortable domain for CentralNic’s staff and clients.
Subtly contrasting hues were used throughout the office to effectively break up the workplace and add focus to the interior. We have added a bold feature wall to each conference room, adding a design focus to each room.
CentralNic now has a workspace that accurately reflects the forward-thinking and innovative nature of the brand.
