Eden McCallum

Workplace

⥤ Overview

A new workspace for Eden McCallum, as the leading management consultancy sought to re-locate its existing team into a more flexible workspace, whilst remaining in a central location in London’s west end. Having found a 6th floor space in Orion House on St Martin’s Lane, minutes from both Covent Garden and Leicester Square underground stations, the company came to align to space-plan and design the new 6,000 sq ft footprint.

⥤ Brief

With many of the firm’s senior partners and analysts spending a good proportion of the week out of the office, the brief was to create a workspace that combined fixed desking with more agile working practices, while also making it feel open and comfortable and creating a variety of productive working spaces.

⥤ Challenges

Eden McCallum’s brand values and therefore its directive for its look and feel hadn’t changed since the first fit-out align had completed, in that a quiet, understated and sophisticated environment was requested, with an interesting, human-scale and unregimented feel. What was different was the challenge of creating a more flexible and agile office within the new footprint, whilst incorporating all the variety of staff requirements - from team to group, semi-private and private working - and ensuring it still felt spacious.
