The Absolute Team undertakes major Office Refurbishment Project

Office Design & Fit-out Company, Absolute Contract Interiors Ltd based in Leeds, have been appointed by Igloo Regeneration to carry out a major office refurbishment of their Grade II listed building in Holbeck Urban Village in Leeds.

Absolute Contract Interiors will prepare a full specification of the office design project, which will include the infrastructure of the building , as well as the office fit-out itself.  The renovation will reveal some of the original brickwork and stone floors and create a number of smaller office suits from 1,000 sq ft. This will break down the large floor plate and offer more flexible workspace to accommodate the wide ranging needs of different businesses.  This flexible office space planning approach will give new tenants the opportunity to create an office design that matches their business needs.

Commenting on the re-development of the building, Paul Simmons, director at Igloo says: “We decided that now is the right time to invest because we noticed, particularly in the last couple of years, changes in demand for office accommodation with far less companies, particularly in the new media sector, needing large floor plates of over 10,000, leaving parts of the Mill empty. In reaction to this, we are investing in a refurbishment to turn the large floor spaces into smaller suites which, in turn, will accommodate the smaller, growing companies that thrive in our community, whilst retaining the flexibility to open them out again to accommodate larger companies.”

The second phase of refurbishment work is planned later in the year which will focus on improving the first visitor impressions to the Mill including new lighting and a modern, more welcoming, reception area.
