The Marketing Practice
Size: 10,000 Sq. ft | Budget: £250k
The Marketing Practice, is a global company that has recently expanded into a new London office. The HQ in East Hendred's lease had been renewed and the leadership team wanted to encourage their people to come back to the office.
In order to get the teams energized by the workplace again, we were tasked with refurbishing the workplace to promote collaboration, socializing and teamworking. To achieve this we designed a space that reduced the number of desks, installed one-person booths throughout the office space, and broke up the workplace with open collaboration spaces, so that teams can gather on an ad-hoc basis.

Pebble Studios had been in temporary workspace for over 12 months and beginning to feel like they were overstaying their welcome. The business had matured, the people needed more space to collaborate and thrive.
Pebble approached Soul Spaces to find, negotiate and re-locate them to their new space as they believe in our owner led approach and knowledge of the city fringe market.
The space we found had two terraces, a unique 3-year lease and prime Shoreditch location with a rent that was 15% below the landlords asking price with an additional one month’s rent free.
The refurbishment works included, new flooring, connectivity and new meeting space.

Akoya
Size: 2,000 Sq. ft | Budget: £197,000
Sustainability was a core aim on this project, aiming for a fully carbon neutral refurbishment. As such we offset 22 tonnes of carbon, re-using and making good rather than removing and recycling.
The end product is simple but sophisticated, with the building’s industrial past contrasted with high end finishes and pops of colour.

Following a Cat A refurbishment Akoya wanted to bring life to the space and make sure it was ready for the return of tenants post COVID19. The competition in the local area includes serviced offices where the spaces are plug and play.
Soul Spaces were tasked with giving the space character as well as functionality, utilising the existing infrastructure as much as possible. Small details are huge and the inclusion of plants, stationary, all furniture makes the space unique in the traditional lease market.
