Our Complete Office Renovation
We completed a comprehensive 8-week office renovation that transformed our workspace into a modern, organised, and functional environment. The renovation not only improved employee satisfaction and productivity but also serves as a live showroom, allowing clients to experience our furniture solutions firsthand.

Primary Pain Points

- Insufficient private spaces for client meetings and confidential calls
