Work On Liverpool Waters Office Refurb Complete
Work on an office building refurbishment in Liverpool is now complete.
The scheme was carried out at No. 8 Princes Dock in Liverpool Waters, a large scale £5.5 billion development project by Peel Land & Property.
The developer worked in partnership with Chapman Taylor Architects, furniture consultancy company Form and fit-out contractor Jennor, to transform the five-storey Grade A office building.
Features include a new bespoke high gloss reception desk, with copper pendant lighting to complement the double height space. In addition, the seating area has been reconfigured to provide guests with room to take in the surrounding views, with a new back lit modern directory to guide people to the right floor.
Other highlights include glass display cabinets housing model shipping vessels and new flooring installed along with ceiling tiles and light fittings.
Liza Marco, Asset Manager at Liverpool Waters said: "I am delighted with the completed refurbishment works and the new look for No.8 created in collaboration with Chapman Taylor, Form and Jennor. This was already a high-spec building but these additional features give the space a unique and luxurious finish to provide a well-designed environment for the current occupiers and their visitors.
"Liverpool Waters is rapidly becoming one of the most sought after destinations in the country, not just for the business community but for leisure and residential customers too. This project was about ensuring the look and feel of No. 8 is commensurate with its place in the office property market."
