Canteen Fit Out and Reconfiguration

Project Overview

Creation Office delivered a complete canteen refurbishment for Concentric, transforming an underutilised breakout space into a clean, functional, and inviting staff environment. The objective was simple: create a space where staff actually want to step away, recharge, and reset.

The Challenge

The existing space lacked identity and comfort. It felt dated, clinical, and uninspiring—more of a necessity than a benefit. Layout efficiency, atmosphere, and staff engagement were all key areas needing improvement.

Our Approach

We took a practical, design-led approach to maximise both usability and visual impact while keeping disruption to a minimum.

Key works included:

• Full internal refresh of the canteen space
• Installation and coordination of vending and refreshment zones
• New flooring throughout for durability and easy maintenance
• Clean, modern decoration with a calming colour palette
• Feature wall installation to introduce visual interest and depth
• Improved layout for better flow and usability
• Furniture installation to create comfortable breakout seating areas
• Integration of natural light and finishes to soften the space

The Result

A bright, modern staff canteen that delivers on both function and feel. The space now supports staff wellbeing, encourages proper breaks, and adds value to the working environment.

• Improved staff experience
• Better space utilisation
• Modern, clean aesthetic
• Low-maintenance, durable finish

Client Outcome

The upgraded canteen has become a well-used, valued space within the business—enhancing day-to-day operations and reinforcing a positive workplace culture.
