Our work
We have worked with companies of all shapes and sizes over the years and have always been proud of what we have created. We take great care in our work and always aim to do our best work ever.
For inspiration and just to show off, here are some case studies from our recent projects and a little bit about what our clients thought of their transformations.
Amshold Group
“It is without hesitation that Amsprop Estates Ltd would recommend Southwark & Boon to anyone looking for a highly efficient company, which provides quality office furnishings and crisp office interior design”
James Hughes, Estates Director - Amsprop Estates Limited
In late 2008 we were pleased to gain the business of Lord Sugar and the Amshold Group for the furnishing of their new offices in Essex. Our work with Lord Sugar’s companies spans right back to 1983 and we are proud to have been able to work with them on a regular basis over the years.
For the latest project, the Amshold Group came to us with the need to design, space plan and furnish their new Loughton offices. We worked closely with them to create an innovative workplace that really reflected their executive image.
Indeed these offices have since been shown on BBC television in ‘The Apprentice’ and we feel they perfectly complement the corporate feel of both the television programme and Lord Sugar’s businesses as a whole.
The project was completed to a high specification, on a tight time schedule and our Project Manager handled the whole project from start to finish to deliver a stunning office space on time and on budget.
OCE UK Ltd
“As well as carrying out the agreed work efficiently and effectively, we have found them to be an easy company to work with. They have finished their jobs within the agreed time and budgets and have communicated with us fully throughout their time on our sites. Performing work around an existing operation presents many challenges and we have found Southwark & Boon alert to the potential pitfalls. They have worked with us to ensure the safety and comfort of our staff as well as allowing our daily operations to continue”
“All of the staff whom we have met have been professional and conscientious as well as sympathetic to our needs and have been prepared to go the extra mile to meet our requirements”
Ken Harvey, Head of Logistics - Océ (UK) Limited
During the past 2 years we have completed several projects including the creation of a new showroom in Angel Court , London and the supply of furniture to their offices in Edinburgh.
We have helped them completely refurbish and fit-out offices on both of these occasions, providing creative space planning and design services along the way. We have supplied a comprehensive office interior solution to their London office including glass and stud partitioning, lighting, specialist cabling, carpeting and decoration and created a boardroom for client meetings with offices and hot desking for sales staff.
The challenge with this project was not just to make the workspace both efficient and contemporary in design, but also to deliver our vision without disrupting the daily operations of the surrounding businesses. This project was won against a number of competitiors at a cost effective price.
Standard Chartered Bank
We have undertaken a number of projects with Standard Chartered Bank in their various London offices. Our usual premise has been to undertake detailed space planning exercises to make the most of their open plan office space. We produced detailed plans of their available space and worked with them and to their specifications regarding number of employees and type of working environment required. To produce various creative options, we then produced some 3D renders to gain a better idea of exactly what the finished environment would look like before a final decision was made.
The results were both spectacular and functional and the repeat business from Standard Chartered is a real indicator of just how happy they were with the outcome of the project.
Liverpool Victoria Group
“Southwark & Boon Ltd have handled various refurbishment projects for Highway Insurance at several locations in recent years, which we are pleased to say have been finished on time and to our complete satisfaction. We would also mention that their installation team has always carried work out with as little disruption as possible to the working environment.”
Gary Wragg, Facilities Manager – Highway Insurance Company Limited. (LV)
We have provided a constant design service for Highway Insurance Ltd., which is part of the Liverpool Victoria Group, over the past 5 years.
We have space planned, refurbished and supplied furniture for their offices in various locations in Essex and Leeds. We have a close working relationship with them and are on hand to help plan their office space, move people around and refurbish certain parts of their offices as necessary.
We have redesigned and restacked floors at different locations including Leeds, Ipswich, Chatham, Brentwood and Romford in Essex. We have also provided desking, seating and storage facilities and project-managed full fit-outs including the dismantling of existing offices and dilapidation projects for them.
Littlestar Services
“Southwark & Boon have looked after our offices for the past 6/7 years. As well as keeping it all well maintained, some 6 years ago they completely refurbished the offices. All these activities were carried out during normal working hours with no disruption to our working day. The workmen from Southwark & Boon are always professional and polite.”
