Aiming to conceptualize on the theories of best practices of working, the Alphabeta building incorporates working spaces that are interactive, playful, encourage encounters as well as offer quiet corners for concentration to improve productivity of the workforce.
The essence of this project is the restoration historical buildings along a stretch to create vibrant working and relaxation spaces that are driven towards sustainable design issues and material and performance maximization.
Design of the Alphabeta building
The project has been designed by Studio RHE (www.studiorhe.com) who has created the perfect office interior spaces with a modern twist set in a decidedly historic architectural fabric. Contemporary features of a high calibre have been integrated into the design; including an atrium cafe with a bar counter that features a Compac quartz worktop from My Kitchen Worktop.
Furniture and Fittings
The fittings and furniture in the Alphabeta building are wholly contemporary in nature, catering to its commercial purpose and have been manufactured by ISM Designs (www.ismdesign.co.uk). My Kitchen Worktop has worked in association with ISM Designs to design bar countertop in the atrium cafe which is close to 6 meters in length and composed of Compac Quartz Gray Zement in a glace finish, which combines the strength and looks of concrete with a soft feel at touch on a matt finish.
Construction
Galliford Try, the FTSE 250 construction and house building group (www.gallifordtry.co.uk) are the main contractors for the Alphabeta building project. They have worked on the overall scheme of this building where My Kitchen Worktop has been commissioned to supply the oversized bar counter more than 6 metres in length. The front of the bar is also clad with the same Compac Quartz Gray Zement and covered with a glass panel on each side.
