Transforming WEM’s workspace and culture.
Having worked in the same office for 75 years, WEM felt it was time to elevate their space in the post-COVID era and embrace current and future ways of working. Looking for a company that aligned with their own personality and culture. The Sheldon team guided WEM through the D&C process. Our design team providing key insights into the hybrid and activity based working models. This information gave WEM the confidence in adopting a highly collaborative and socially focused workspace that supports both office and site staff.
Solution
Sheldon provided WEM with a contemporary, open plan and hybrid layout. Sheldon’s in-house manufacturing division manufactured and installed a large booth seating unit built from custom joinery for use in the kitchen and break out area. Multiple open and closed meeting spaces were built with the latest in collaborative furniture offerings and audio-visual technology to support teamwork.
A key feature kept from the existing fit out was the barber’s shop, a Friday tradition for WEM staff whereby a professional barber would come in for the day with staff booking slots. Sheldon built a dedicated room for this complete with a traditional red, white and blue barber’s pole!
Result
Sheldon effectively delivered a high-quality result for WEM by placing our efforts into understanding the needs and quality requirements of our client. The new workplace made a profound impact on the way WEM conducts its day-to-day business, changing from a demountable style office structure to a modern and welcoming space.
