Office Design in York
Gray Architectural Design provides office design in York, with experience planning and redesigning offices for an e-commerce business in the city. That experience covers office layouts, breakout areas and specialist production spaces.
Based in Acomb, we work with businesses to understand their premises and develop a design around their requirements.
Discuss your office projectPlan your office around the work happening inside it
Start with the activities your office needs to accommodate. Consider which teams need to work together, where breakout space is needed and whether photography, audio or video production forms part of the brief.
Identify what works in the current layout and what needs to change.
Bring those requirements together before settling on individual rooms or desk positions.
Office layouts, breakout areas and specialist spaces
Office planning and workspace layouts
Our office-planning work considers how the different working areas fit together, using the client’s requirements to guide the layout.
Breakout areas
Include breakout areas in the brief alongside the main workspace. Consider what each space is for and how it relates to surrounding activities.
Photography, sound and video studios
If photography, audio or video production is part of your business, include it in the brief.
Discuss the relationship between these rooms and everyday office use, including any specialist technical input required.
Office-design experience in York
For an e-commerce business in York, GAD provided ongoing office planning and redesign covering office layouts, breakout areas, photography studios and sound and video recording studios.
Our involvement included understanding the client’s vision, developing the design, preparing detailed drawings and producing a tender package.
If your business combines office work with content production, tell us how those activities need to share the premises.
From your initial brief to detailed drawings
01 · Understand the requirements
We begin by discussing your business, the existing premises and the changes you want to make. This establishes the priorities for the design and the scope of our involvement.
02 · Develop the layout
The design brings the different working areas together. This is the stage to examine how the proposed arrangement responds to your brief and identify where further decisions are needed.
03 · Explain the proposed work
Detailed drawings and tender documentation formed part of our York office project. The information needed for your project would be agreed within your appointment.
Any project-management or construction-stage involvement would be agreed as part of your appointment.
A York practice with wider commercial experience
Dean Gray leads GAD as an architectural technologist. Our commercial work extends beyond offices to other business environments.
The AV.com showroom project involved arranging product displays within limited space and coordinating design work with sound and visual specialists. It is a showroom case study, rather than an office project, but demonstrates another aspect of our commercial spatial-planning experience.
