We first installed St George’s Park National Football Centre in 2012. The challenge was to provide a the training base for Club England, which runs all 24 England representative sides and then integrate the facilities and expertise for screening, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation across all sports. The installation was a success, with the diverse needs of the facility (including business, sport, hospitality, medical, conferencing and refreshment) all furnished from The Senator Group portfolio. In 2018, we were approached to redesign the space into a more collaborative environment, with increased interaction and soft seating spaces, to create a truly agile work setting with no fixed desks. This adjustment to the existing design afforded higher levels of collaboration and innovation across all key departments.
Our comprehensive study for Illumina involved 400 hours of onsite observation, surveys of 360 employees, and occupancy/utilisation measurement for six hours per day over a two week period. From this activity we understood the issues faced by both individuals and the business itself, and developed an innovative workplace strategy to support improved agile working, using seven core ‘settings’ typologies. The programme was designed, delivered and installed by The Senator Group. To welcome occupants into their new space, we rolled out a training programme called ‘Welcome to your Workplace’, which provided a guide on how to use the space, coupled with presentations and training sessions, to ensure colleagues were using the space as effectively as possible.
One of our many successful handovers was for Homes England, where we completed a full design and install of their new offices in Newcastle using our tried and tested methodology.
We designed a new adaptable and innovative office for a space of over 20,000sq ft using both Senator and Allermuir products.
The new four-story Discovery Hall building at Rowan University's Glassboro campus expands facilities for the School of Earth and Environment and the College of Science and Mathematics.
Discovery Hall weaves together landscape and learning. The 67,560-square-foot academic and research building was designed to connect the place of learning with the environment’s natural systems as an integral teaching tool to promote academic excellence as well as the health and wellbeing of the entire campus community.
O’Connor Utilities, one of the UK’s key utility contract providers, needed a new flagship HQ that reflected their growth and stature. Habit Action were instructed to design and build a complete Cat A and Cat B transformation of the existing tired 3 storey office block.
The resulting space has the feel of a luxury hotel. A dramatic atrium complete with moss wall and cascading light feature greets staff and visitors upon arrival while the executive business lounge and bar has been designed to impress.
