Case Study: Delivering a Modern, Vibrant Workplace for Gracelands Ltd (Colden Common)

Gracelands Head Office Fit Out By Foursquare Workspace: Transforming Workplaces from Concept to Completion

For Foursquare Workspace, successful delivery means more than simply installing components; it means creating inspiring, productive places that reflect the client’s brand and culture. Our comprehensive fit-out for Gracelands Ltd in Colden Common, Hampshire, exemplifies this commitment.

The client’s objective was to overhaul their workspace to create a modern, open, and highly functional environment where staff could thrive. Crucially, the design needed to maximise the building’s stunning views of the River Itchen while still delivering essential privacy.

The Design Challenge: Openness vs. Acoustic Functionality

A full-scale refurbishment requires balancing aesthetic vision with practical execution. The Gracelands project was focused on achieving an open, contemporary feel without compromising the acoustic integrity needed for focused, complex work.

To overcome this, we leveraged premium glazed partitioning systems. This allowed us to define essential work zones while ensuring that natural light and the expansive views were integrated into the entire floorplate, benefiting every member of staff.

The Foursquare Workspace Solution: Comprehensive Execution

This project required seamless management across multiple disciplines—from initial design and planning through to final fit-out. Our full-service approach ensured every detail delivered on the client’s vision:

High-Specification Glass Partitioning: We designed and installed high-clarity glass systems that served as the backbone of the new layout. This provided the necessary acoustic separation for meeting rooms and management offices without sacrificing the collaborative, open aesthetic.
Integration of Core Services: The glass framework was seamlessly integrated with new suspended ceiling systems, fire-rated services, and new floor finishes across the entire area, ensuring a cohesive and certified build.
A Focus on Staff Wellbeing: By optimising the use of natural light and external views, the new workspace created an environment that was explicitly described by the client as “motivating and purposeful.”

Delivering Vision: A Partner, Not Just a Contractor

The successful outcome of the Gracelands refurbishment demonstrates the capacity of Foursquare Workspace to deliver large-scale, high-value projects that demand precision and detailed project management.

We take the time to gain an in-depth understanding of your business needs, enabling us to manage all aspects of the project—from concept to completion—leaving you to concentrate on running your business.
