Based on Temple Street in the heart of the city centre of Birmingham, EU Automation needed help relocating one of their offices in a short time frame of 6 weeks. 

To help achieve this, EU Automation approached Bullock and Bosson to assist with the move & add new furniture to help create a stylish yet functional office.

Due to the limitations, they were facing recruiting international staff to their offices at Stafford, their aim was to attract diverse talent using the excellent catchment area & transport links into Birmingham. To attract this talent, we found that the offices needed to be open plan and have multiple areas for collaboration & team building.  

Brief

• Total size: 5,008 sq ft
• 36-person open plan design
• 2 manager offices
• 2 x 4-person breakout areas
• 6-person breakout area
• 8-person boardroom
• Breakfast bar area

EU Automation’s brand colours were influential in the direction taken for the internal aesthetics, for example, the soft seating is both comfortable & helps to create brand recognition throughout the office.

It was great working with Sue Cornwell, who was forward-thinking in her approach to reusing their existing furniture & Bullock & Bosson were also able to assist with cleaning & repairs to over 50 chairs. The overall appearance of the furniture has a very much ‘new installation’ look to it.

Creating the open plan office space with various internal elements, such as breakout spaces, office/desk space, breakfast bar and chill out areas meant careful consideration had to be given to the design functionality.

Outcome

Following completion of the office furniture project for EU Automation, they were able to recruit high quality talent to their team. The new office environment clearly reflects the company’s ambitions to create a positive, welcoming environment.

Ian Turner from Bullock & Bosson comments “Even with the logistical challenges, this project was a pleasure to work on. We were conscious of the fact that we had 2 hours to offload any furniture whilst also being considerate in working around other tenants in the building at what was a busy time in the morning”.

For us at Bullock and Bosson, it isn’t just providing the best designs and specifications, it’s the service and attention to detail we like to give our clients and given the feedback we have received from the team at EU Automation and No.10 temple street, I’d say we achieved that.”
