Gerflor ‘Create’ the London look

Regeneration Wed, Mar 23, 2016 9:18 AM

Office Space in Town are a serviced office company that offers businesses and individuals workspace solutions.

They ensure the right location for companies and choose buildings in central districts of London and the provinces.

Once identified the buildings are refurbished to a high standard led by an experienced design team that creates a stimulating working environment for each building. And 20 St Dunstan’s Hill in the City of London is one of their gleaming jewels in an already shiny crown.

Ensuring the final look and the functionality of this recent office refit would be a challenge all-round. The designers at the appointed design firm SKS would be at the top of their game to deliver an interior that met all these challenges.

At SKS they have a mantra that swims against the unexceptional and pioneers what they do. They pride themselves on the fact that they don’t believe in a single solution or design style and see every project as an opportunity to surpass their client’s expectations.  

Sam Kopsch, owner at SKS commented: “Office Space in Town are a lifelong client, who I have designed four buildings for over the last three years. Essentially, they are a client for life and I’m ‘their designer”. Sam goes on to further comment, “The challenge was the sheer scale of the building and as always coming up with a concept that was unique and at the same time marketable as a serviced office. The reward is simple…a happy client and a design to be proud of.”

Stepping up to this challenging remit from SKS, International flooring and interiors specialist Gerflor would be supplying two of their most iconic and stunning flooring products. The first specified flooring product to grace this top-end specification would be Gerflor’s LVT Creation.

Gerflor’s LVT Creation ranges provide cutting-edge, attractive, design-led solutions for most contract applications. Designed for medium traffic areas for light commercial use at one end of the spectrum is the LVT Creation 55 range and for the heaviest footfall at the other end is Creation 70 range. These sophisticated ranges offer a brand new palette of realistic wood and mineral finishes in tile and plank formats with beveled edges.
 
In addition to this, the looselay CLIC System’s unique vertical interlocking format allows this product to be laid quickly over most existing surfaces, with no need to close premises during refurbishments saving customers time and money. Perfect for the retail, hotel, hospitality, administration, leisure or domestic sectors. The Creation 70 & Creation 55 ranges are also 100% recyclable, REACH compliant and are treated with PUR+ surface treatment, providing excellent cleaning characteristics and improved resistance to scratching.

The contracting and fitting would also have be of the highest standards to mirror the stunning creativity of SKS. Carters in Leatherhead, Surrey were duly appointed to take on this challenging mantle. Carters have brought the highest standards in commercial flooring products and flooring installation services to businesses throughout the UK for over 65 years.
The second Gerflor product to enhance the 2,500m2 of flooring the office re-fit needed would be GTI.

The smart Gerflor GTI range has a 2mm wearlayer and 6mm thickness overall and easily copes with constant footfall, bearing the heaviest static loads around the clock. It’s one of the toughest vinyl flooring tile ranges on the market and is designed for industrial, retail and leisure areas. The Gerflor GTI range is available in 16 colours offering design flexibility. There is no adhesive to apply and dry, therefore the installation can be done quickly without closing the facilities and losing business and is suitable for most subfloor types – ceramics, concrete, resin and irregular surfaces.
 
The backing is 4mm black homogenous sheet, while the surface is a 2mm coloured homogenous sheet.  GTI has a T Wear Group  rating, with a R10 classification for slip resistance, and is treated with Gerflor’s unique PUR+  surface treatment, which provides easy cleaning and improved resistance to scratching, excellent resistance to chemicals and significantly delays the need for waxing. The GTI range is also 100% recyclable.

Sam Kopsch finally adds: “Gerflor have great products, a large range to choose from, which is always a challenge to find when working on such large scales buildings and they are fixed at a conservative price point. I’m very pleased with the overall look and quality of the product and I regularly use Gerflor. In fact I have just specified their product for two new projects I am working on.”
