SMART PIG
THE BRIEF
Smart-Pig was created in 2012 by students at the University of Warwick and the University of Hertfordshire who realised that lots of students used short term loans, after they ran into trouble with a short-term loan themselves.
Following some minor works carried out previously the client returned to Pure Office Solutions Ltd asking for more extensive fit-out works to include new partitioning, office furniture, kitchenette and new toilet facilities including disabled toilets and fully functioning shower.
Pure Office Solutions were more than happy to oblige and following extensive planning meetings the works commenced.

THE OUTCOME
This project was extensive.
The original office layout was open plan. With the clever use of partitioning we were able to divide up the space to accommodate office area, meeting room and large kitchenette. By dividing up the area with full height glazed partitioning there were issues with light quality or noise.
The new flooring gives a modern yet uniform feel to the office. The safety specification of the flooring means it will prevent slips when wet.
The client was very pleased with the final outcome.
The new office space will future proof there business for years to come, as there is scope to expand as and when required.
