SANBRA GROUP RECEPTION AND BOARDROOMS

The Sanbra Group has recently completed a comprehensive refresh of their facilities, blending their industrial heritage with modern design. This refresh has transformed various areas within their building to enhance functionality and aesthetics, ensuring a welcoming and engaging environment for both employees and clients.

 

The newly refurbished reception area sets the tone for the facility. At its heart is a reception desk crafted using brass photo etching, a process where brass sheets are etched with a pattern using a photoresist and chemical solution. This desk features a pattern derived from an Instantor technical drawing, connecting the present-day design with the company's engineering roots.

The ground floor boardroom is sophisticated, featuring wood panelling and a deep colour palette of greens and blacks. The space is enhanced by layering materials and textures, including an oak herringbone floor and a jute rug, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The design of the group presentation room is inspired by "Flair," a brand of the Sanbra Group. This space is designed to be highly engaging, with tiered seating that incorporates hidden LED lights and felt cushion panels. The seating comes in three colourways, adding visual interest. A unique ceiling with a bulkhead feature and tube lights enhances the room's feel, making it a standout area for presentations and meetings.

A wood-clad, pitched-roof hallway with hidden doors and built-in LED strip lights provides a seamless transition between different areas of the building.

The toilets have been designed using Sanbra Group products, ensuring functionality and a premium feel. This attention to detail reflects the company's commitment to quality and their own product excellence.

The upstairs boardroom is finished in a sophisticated navy blue, incorporating existing traditional furniture to create a timeless space. This room blends modern and classic elements, providing an elegant setting for meetings.

The Sanbra Group's design refresh marries historical elements with contemporary design, creating a cohesive and appealing environment. From the uniquely crafted reception desk to the boardrooms and presentation spaces, every detail has been considered to reflect the Sanbra Group's brand and values.
