Project Overview

Transform provided construction works for the fit-out of 20,000 sqft in the top floor of the Marischal Square Development for the Press and Journal’s move from their long-term home at the Lang Stracht to the new purpose built development in the city centre. As Principal Contractor, we worked with the client-appointed architect, M&E consultant and QS to deliver this high profile fit-out within a 13-week programme.

The project involved the fit-out of an open plan office suite featuring a significant amount of bespoke, manufactured joinery designed to create different collaboration and meeting areas with integrated IT and display facilities.

Above ceiling and under floor services alterations and new distribution were required to suit the design layout as well as partition installations, formation of staff welfare and breakout areas, associated fixtures, a mix of carpeting and hardwood floor finishes and all internal decoration works. The project also involved a major AV installation to suit the needs of the conference and meeting spaces that were created throughout the office.

Transform completed the works utilising a mix of our in-house trades with client nominated sub-contractors and base build specialist trades all supervised and managed by our project team.
The finished suite features a striking and modern environment that provides a flexible, collaborative workspace for over 150 staff.
