Overview
In January 2013, Jacobs UK carried out a review of the Interior Landscaping Contract at their Winnersh, Reading office. The brief was to design a modern, contemporary scheme, which would complement the building and Jacobs’ business activities. Green Team Interiors were successful in winning the contract and worked closely with Jacob UK’s Establishment Manager to create completely new look by introducing a series of free-standing displays.
The main reception area was of particular importance to the client and they were keen for the scheme to evoke a strong architectural and industrial look and feel.
Health and Safety is high priority and from the very first meeting it was clear that adherence to Jacob’s stringent policies would be of paramount importance.
