Why choose Soul Spaces for your office design and fit out in Soho?
At Soul Spaces, we believe an office should be designed around people rather than simply filling a floor with desks.
We take the time to understand your business, your team and how your workplace needs to function. Whether you need collaborative areas, private meeting rooms, quiet spaces, breakout areas or flexible working zones, we can incorporate these requirements into the design.
We also understand that a fit out needs to work within a budget and a deadline. Our approach brings design, project management and construction together, helping to keep the process organised from the initial brief through to completion.
We have a passion for building designs that are modern and forward thinking, taking layouts into consideration for meeting spaces and hybrid working, whilst being environmentally and sustainability conscious in our work.
The result is a workplace that is designed to support your business today while giving you flexibility for the future.

How much does an office fit out cost in Soho?
How much does an office fit out cost in Soho?
The cost of an office fit out in Soho depends on the size and condition of the space and if it is Cat A or Cat B – whereby Cat A fit outs can start at around £40–£80 per sq ft, while Cat B fit outs can typically range from around £75–£140+ per sq ft
Cat A fit out provides the basic functional and mechanical infrastructure of an office, while a Cat B fit out transforms that space into a fully operational, branded workplace ready for staff to use
Higher-specification projects can go considerably beyond these figures:
For example, a 3,000 sq ft office could have an indicative Cat B fit-out cost of approximately £225,000–£420,000.
A 4,000 sq ft office could be around £300,000–£560,000, while a 5,000 sq ft office could be approximately £375,000–£700,000.
These figures are intended as a starting point rather than a quotation. Soho properties can vary significantly, particularly where listed buildings, complicated access, existing mechanical and electrical systems or specialist finishes are involved. If you would like a quote for your office, please get in touch with our team to arrange a site visit and discuss next steps.
Office fit out cost for 30–50 person office
A 30–50 person office might require approximately 3,000–5,000 sq ft, depending on your layout and working style.
For a standard Cat B fit out, this could put the indicative budget at around £225,000–£700,000.
The final cost will depend on the specification and what is already in place within the building.
Office fit out cost for 80–100 person office
An 80–100 person office could require approximately 8,000–10,000 sq ft, although the exact amount depends on desk density, hybrid working and the number of meeting and collaboration spaces required.
Using the same indicative Cat B range, an 8,000 sq ft office could cost approximately £600,000–£1.12 million, while a 10,000 sq ft office could be around £750,000–£1.4 million.
