Hawksford decided to switch to the hybrid working model at the beginning of 2021. They worked extensively with interior designers Axis Mason to reimagine a workspace that has its floorspace reduced by a third. Previously the office housed 165 people across four floors on an entirely desk-based set-up. The office can now take up to 110 people on any particular day so the office has capacity for two-thirds of the workforce and is now on two floors only allowing Hawksford to reduce their real estate costs.

Style Office tendered for and were selected by Hawksford to furnish their new hybrid workspace. They utilised all their experience to help create an environment that will attract the best talent, help all Hawksford staff feel connected to each other and the organisation’s purpose and support greater collaboration balanced with quiet, distraction free focus.

Style Office worked with Axis Mason to replace traditional office space with 62 bookable sit-stand hot desks, a number of different types of collaboration and project areas, individual booths for quiet, focus work, conference rooms, a café and outdoor terraces. Everywhere is completely Wi-Fi enabled with power and USB chargers, even in the soft seating, and all is easily configurable to work for teams or for individual work.
