The James Burleigh Waldo/45 tables and bench sets were selected by the Ian Gunter-Jones, architectural practice, for the Homelet Insurance agency’s canteen area in Lincoln, UK.
HomeLet (part of the Barbon Insurance Group.) relocated to their new HQ in Lincoln premises of 25,000 sq.ft. Their new workplace was designed to encourage openness and create a ‘lively, friendly, homely’ environment. The clients are extremely happy with the results.
Ian Gunter-Jones Worked closely with the HomeLet change management team and undertook a detailed study of their workplace, and devised a new strategy which enabled more ‘task based working and flexibility’. The workplace strategy helped Homelet to reduce their space requirement by 30% yet accommodate 100 additional staff. It enabled them to expand their Lincoln team to 330 people, significantly cut their overheads and facilitate business growth.
Special thanks to Ian Gunter-Jones
