Office Fit-Out Project in Wiltshire: Design-led transformation of a ground floor workspace

Flo — Thu, 05 Feb 2026 10:50:18 +0000

Fit-Out Overview

This office fit out project saw BSE UK transform a previously underused ground floor warehouse space into a fully functioning office and breakout space within a modern industrial building in Wiltshire. The aim was to create a workspace that felt practical, welcoming and aligned with how the business operates day to day, while maintaining continuity with the existing first floor office.

The building sits within a contemporary industrial complex typical of light industrial, warehousing and commercial use.

The project was managed by Jerry Hubble, Office Fit-Out Project Manager at BSE UK, supported by Fit-Out Project Coordinator Haydn Couzens. Together, they oversaw the project from tender stage through design development, coordination, and delivery on site.

The Starting Point: Understanding the Workspace Needs

Before work began, the ground floor was primarily used for warehouse storage. While functional, it didn’t support how the business was growing or the way teams needed to work. The goal was to turn the space into an office that could support both focused work and collaboration.

The client approached BSE UK for a design-led approach, seeking guidance on layout, flow and styling to create a space that reflects the way people actually work. Rather than starting with finishes, the focus was on understanding daily working patterns and how teams interact.

Key objectives included:

Aligning the ground floor with the first floor office for continuity
Creating flexible spaces that support both focus and collaboration
Designing with people and processes in mind

Jerry, BSE UK's Office Fit-Out Manager says:

The brief was really about making the ground floor work properly for the business. It had been used as warehouse storage space, so we focused on bringing in more light and creating a layout that supports everyday working, while still tying in with the first floor. It’s now a flexible, practical office space that feels part of the wider building but has its own character.

Building Improvements and Refurbishment

Several changes to the building features helped improve light, circulation, and overall usability:

New windows to bring additional light deeper into the space
A new external door from the kitchen and breakout area for safety purposes
Updated finishes and layouts to match the existing office

These adjustments transformed the floor from a back-of-house storage area into an inviting, usable workspace.

Layout & Workplace Design

The layout was designed to support different ways of working while keeping the office easy to navigate. Dedicated desk areas were provided for office-based team members, alongside a hot-desking zone for temporary or visiting staff. This hot-desking area also doubles as a quiet working space away from the main desks.

Bespoke window seating and storage was installed along the glazed elevations. These areas provide informal working spots or places to take a break, with integrated display space on top.

The space supports:

Team desks for everyday work
Hot-desking for flexible working or visiting staff
Quiet zones for focused tasks
Informal breakout and display areas

Design Direction for Modern Office Fit Out

BSE UK’s interior design partner used the first floor as inspiration while updating the ground floor with a fresh look. A neutral colour palette was used as a base, softened with carefully placed colour accents to add character. Natural timber finishes introduce warmth and contrast with the industrial elements of the building. Accent and mood lighting creates a relaxed, modern feel throughout the office.

Artwork and graphics subtly reference aviation, tying the design to the business’s specialism. The approach creates continuity across the building while giving the ground floor its own identity.

Acoustics and Comfort

Acoustic performance was an important consideration. The space combines open desks, informal seating, and quieter working areas. Rather than hiding the building’s raw finishes, walls and ceilings were layered with acoustic solutions that are both functional and visually interesting.

Sound control was improved with waved ceiling rafts made from specialist acoustic panelling. The Nown Atmosphera ‘Swell’ ceiling rafts absorb noise while becoming a defining visual feature overhead.

Additional comfort was added through:

Planting to soften the space and introduce greenery
Extra acoustic panels in key areas
Slatted timber dividers between window seating and informal work benches

Together, these features create a space that feels open and bright but remains acoustically comfortable.

Colour, Flooring & Finishes

Colour and branding were integrated thoughtfully, using the company’s palette in key areas without overwhelming the space. Flooring was chosen for both durability and to help define zones:

Textured carpet tiles in desks and meeting areas to improve acoustic comfort
Timber-effect flooring in circulation and breakout zones to guide movement

Finishes were selected to be practical, hard-wearing, and visually cohesive with the wider design.

Kitchen & Breakout Space

The kitchen and breakout area was designed to be a space people naturally gravitate towards. Sage green base units were paired with timber-effect wall units, while undercounter ambient lighting softens the overall feel.

A central feature island with a terrazzo worktop provides a focal point and practical workspace, with integrated lighting adding warmth. The kitchen and breakout area works equally well for informal meetings, collaboration, or stepping away from desks.

Flexible Meeting Spaces

Meeting rooms were designed to be flexible and adaptable. Ambient lighting and ceiling-mounted sky panels create a calm, distinctive environment.

The room features:

A folding wall to divide the space into two areas
Mobile desks that can be moved together or apart depending on needs

This approach ensures the space is fully flexible and maximises the footprint, supporting both team collaboration and individual focus

Delivery & Office Fit-Out Build

Haydn, BSE UK's Office Fit-Out Coordinator says:

From a delivery point of view, it was about keeping everything moving and making sure the details were right on site. There were a few building changes and bespoke elements to coordinate, so clear communication with the team and contractors was key.

Seeing the space come together as intended always makes the planning worthwhile.

Fit-Out Summary

This project demonstrates a design and build office fit out where every decision, from building changes to furniture, finishes, and lighting - was guided by how people actually work. The ground floor now provides flexible, modern, and welcoming spaces that complement the first floor while giving the office a refreshed, contemporary identity.

It blends functionality with thoughtful design, creating an environment that works for everyday tasks, collaborative sessions, and quieter focus moments, all within a modern industrial setting.

Pallet Racking & Boltless Shelving Installation for Unilever’s R&D Facility

Flo — Mon, 02 Feb 2026 10:55:51 +0000

When Unilever’s Research & Development team at their Sharnbrook site started reviewing how their space was being used, one thing became clear. The way stock was stored no longer matched how the site was operating day to day. As the volume and variety of equipment, materials and consumables grew, so did the pressure on the existing layout.

They needed more than just extra storage. The objective was to improve flow, increase capacity and make sure the space could support how the site would work in the future, not just now.

That’s where BSE UK came in.

Here, we take a look back at the details of the project.

Understanding the warehouse storage challenge

Unilever approached BSE UK looking for a practical, scalable warehouse storage solution that would support several different areas across the site. Adam Griffiths from the Unilever team explained that they needed a mix of pallet racking and boltless shelving, alongside the relocation of some existing racking to improve overall layout and efficiency.

The key challenge was space. The footprint of the building was fixed, but the demands on it were increasing. Different departments had different storage needs, from palletised goods in the dry store, through to boxed items, archives, cleaning supplies and engineering equipment.

It wasn’t just about fitting more in. It was about creating a system that made sense operationally. Clear access routes, safe working practices and flexibility for future changes were all part of the brief.

Designing the right pallet racking system

Simon Lock from BSE UK led the design of the new pallet racking installation, starting with the dry store. This area needed to handle both Euro pallets (800mm x 1200mm) and standard pallets (1000mm x 1200mm), while making the most of a compact space.

Rather than defaulting to wide aisles, Simon designed a layout with slightly narrower aisles to maximise pallet capacity without compromising safety or usability. This allowed Unilever to achieve the pallet numbers they required within the available footprint.

The system was built with multiple levels and durable wire mesh decking. This gave Unilever the flexibility to store non-palletised items on upper levels, which was particularly useful for mixed stock and irregular items.

Each bay was designed to handle up to 12,000kg, with 3,000kg per level, providing the strength and reliability needed for a busy R&D environment.

Because of the tighter aisle widths, Simon specified the use of Bendi or Flexi articulated trucks. These trucks have a much smaller turning circle than traditional forklifts, making them ideal for narrow aisle pallet racking. This choice ensured the system would not only fit physically, but also work smoothly in practice.

Reconfiguring their existing storage layout

Alongside the new pallet racking installation, Unilever also wanted to make better use of their existing assets. Part of the project involved dismantling an existing pallet racking system and reinstalling it in their Reserve Equipment Store.

The brief here was simple: reuse what was already available, with only new floor fixings and a small number of additional bays added where needed. This approach kept costs under control while still delivering a meaningful improvement in how the space was organised.

By relocating and reconfiguring the racking, Unilever were able to create a more logical flow between areas, reduce congestion and free up valuable space in key operational zones.

Boltless shelving for multiple departments

Beyond pallet storage, several departments required a different type of solution. Heavy duty boltless shelving systems were installed across the Cleaning Store, Archive Stores, Furniture & Equipment Store and Apleona Engineering Stores.

These areas needed easy access, clear visibility and shelving that could adapt as requirements changed. Boltless shelving was the ideal fit.

The systems were fitted with chipboard shelves in widths ranging from 1830mm to 2135mm, tailored to suit each space and the items being stored. Finished in painted grey beams with blue frames, the shelving provides a clean, consistent look across the site.

Each level is capable of holding up to 500kg, which was more than sufficient for Unilever’s needs, while still allowing teams to reconfigure shelf heights as stock profiles evolve.

Racking installation and delivery

The full project was delivered by the SEIRS installation team, working closely with BSE UK and Unilever to ensure minimal disruption to daily operations. SEIRS operates under SEMA to ensure that storage equipment installers meet industry standards for competence and safety.

Specialist equipment, including scissor lifts and forklift trucks, was used throughout the installation process to ensure everything was completed safely and efficiently.

From initial design through to final handover, the focus remained on creating a storage system that felt like part of the building, not an add-on. Every area was designed around how people actually use the space.

A solution built around real needs

What makes this project stand out is not the scale, but the thinking behind it. This wasn’t about installing as much racking as possible. It was about understanding how the site operates, where the pressure points were, and what Unilever needed from the space over the long term.

The result is a warehouse storage solution that supports:

Higher pallet capacity within the same footprint
Safer, more efficient movement through the use of articulated trucks
Flexible storage for mixed stock and changing requirements
Better organisation across multiple departments
A layout that can adapt as the site continues to grow

It’s a good example of how warehouse fit out projects work best when they start with real operational objectives, not just product specifications.

Simon Lock on the project

Simon Lock, who led the design of the solution, reflected on the project:

“Pallet racking and boltless shelving are the core of what BSE UK have been doing for more than 50 years. Projects like this are always a pleasure to work on, to discuss the requirements of the customer and then design a solution that fully suited to what they need. It’s rewarding to see how it benefits them. Great to work with Alex on this. Thank you.”

BSE UK: Creating smarter spaces for growing businesses

For BSE UK, this project with Unilever is a clear example of what modern warehouse storage should look like. Rather than a racking-first approach, a carefully planned environment that supports how people work, how stock moves and how the business is likely to evolve.

Whether it’s pallet racking installation, boltless shelving or full warehouse reconfiguration, the real value comes from understanding the customer first. Their challenges, their constraints and their goals.

In Unilever’s case, the outcome is a smarter, more efficient R&D facility that can handle current demand and stay flexible for whatever comes next. And that’s exactly what good storage design should achieve.

If you’ve got an upcoming storage project and want to talk through your options, you can call the BSE UK team on 0117 955 5211, email info@bse-uk.co.uk, or book a free site survey to see what’s possible in your space.

Molly Crane — Mon, 28 Apr 2025 11:43:18 +0000

About the Client

Broadwater Technologies Ltd. provides specialist water treatment solutions across the UK for a variety of industries. With a team of engineers, consultants and support staff, the company is all about providing innovative, top-quality solutions and they wanted their office space to reflect that same level of professionalism and forward-thinking.

The Challenge

Broadwater’s office interior at Tortworth Business Park had become outdated and wasn’t really working for them anymore. The space felt cramped, with poor flow, not enough natural light and limited areas for collaboration. Staff were finding it tough to stay productive in such a dull, cluttered office environment. As the team grew, it was clear they needed a more flexible, modern space that would help them thrive both now and for the future.

The Solution

We teamed up with Commercial Interior Designer Andrew Kidd to completely redesign the company's office interior. Our goal was to make the most of the space and create a work environment that would be functional, inspiring as well as aligned with Broadwater’s values.

Some of the key changes we made included:

Opening up the space to let in more natural light and create a more inviting atmosphere
Creating flexible work zones, including areas for collaboration, quiet zones for focused work and comfy breakout spaces
Adding fresh, modern finishes that feel professional but welcoming
Incorporating subtle branding elements to give the space a clear sense of identity without going overboard

The design also takes employee wellbeing into account, with ergonomic furniture and a touch of greenery to make the office feel comfortable and energising.

The Result

The transformation speaks for itself!

The new space is not just functional, it’s a place where Broadwater’s team can collaborate, focus and feel inspired. It’s a modern, dynamic environment that’s perfectly suited to the company’s needs today and as they continue to grow, it will support them every step of the way.

Broadwater now has a workspace that reflects their commitment to innovation and professionalism, while giving their team a place they truly want to be.

Molly Crane — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 13:07:35 +0000

Skin Cupid, a rapidly growing Korean skincare brand renowned for its focus on skin health and beauty, offers a diverse range of products enriched with natural, nourishing ingredients. As the brand's popularity has soared, so has its demand. To keep up with growth and maintain operational efficiency, Skin Cupid made the strategic decision to move its storage operations from a London facility to a larger warehouse in Peterborough.

The Challenge: At their new premises, Skin Cupid faced the need for a tailored storage system that could accommodate their palletised goods and streamline picking operations. The goal was to create a solution that maximised storage capacity, ensured efficient workflows, and supported the brand's commitment to delivering premium quality skincare products to their growing customer base.

The Solution: Skin Cupid reached out to BSE UK in July 2024 to design and implement a storage system for the new warehouse. Storage specialist, Matt, visited the site to assess the available space and measure up, whilst considering factors such as headspace and the warehouse workflow. The solution had to ensure seamless goods inward and picking operations, crucial for Skin Cupid to meet increasing demand.

Following this site visit, Matt provided a detailed proposal, which included:

Adjustable Pallet Racking: Custom designed with timber decks, ideal for storing pallets of products, and featuring specific labelling with SKU codes for easy identification.
Racking Protection: End barriers and post guards to ensure the safety and longevity of the storage system.
Short Span Shelving: Tailored shelving to accommodate picking operations, complete with a clear labelling system for easy identification of each SKU – therefore streamlining order fulfilment.
Workbenches: High quality workstations to facilitate efficient packing of orders for shipment to customers.
Conveyor: Designed to speed up the workflow from picking to packing, the conveyor system ensures a seamless transition of products, reducing manual handling and increasing operational speed and efficiency.

The design and layout were carefully designed to ensure Skin Cupid could operate at maximum efficiency while maintaining the highest standards of quality.

Implementation: Once the proposal was approved, the installation process was scheduled to begin in August 2024. With a four week timeframe to complete the project, Project Manager Ollie Dulley oversaw the entire installation, working closely with both BSE UK’s SEIRS registered installers and the client.

Results: The new storage solution has significantly improved Skin Cupid’s ability to manage inventory and fulfil orders more efficiently, directly supporting their growth and ability to meet consumer demand. The optimised layout ensures an efficient workflow from goods receipt to picking and packing, allowing the brand to maintain the quality and speed of service expected by their customers.
