A workplace modernisation 50 years in the making.
After 50 years in a previous workplace, James Hardie engaged Sheldon for a much-needed modernisation of their office space. In the spirit of this collaboration-focused approach, Sheldon actively guided James Hardie through from design to construction. A priority for the team was to facilitate teamwork and increase inter-department collaboration throughout the space.
Solution
Sheldon provided James Hardie with a contemporary, open plan and functional space. Sheldon’s in-house manufacturing division built and installed custom booth seating, staff lockers and custom joinery in the kitchen and breakout area.
The contemporary desking systems and space arrangement promotes social and collaborative interaction, without compromising functionality. Multiple quiet zones, open and closed meeting spaces were built throughout with the latest in collaborative furniture styles and audio-visual technology to support teamwork.
Result
Delivered on time, within budget and to high quality, James Hardie quickly reported on the differences the renovation made. Specifically, the company reported improved morale and workplace happiness amongst colleagues (see testimonial below). This much desired outcome is the result of Sheldon creating a future proofed and collaborative space whilst supporting our client’s core requirements.
Testimonial
“The team at Sheldon transformed our old, dated office into a stunning, homely, and modern environment that enables strong collaboration and connectivity amongst the workforce. Throughout the design and construction process, the project team maintained a high level of communication and were extremely accommodating and responsive to any additional requests or design changes.
As we held partial occupancy of the building throughout, it was critical that the staged approach to construction was managed closely. This was something that Sheldon’s Site Managers excelled at. It was a very enjoyable experience working with Sheldon on this project, and really rewarding to reveal the newly rejuvenated office space to my fellow colleagues.”
