The Brief
Harron Homes, one of the UK’s most respected housebuilders, approached WorkBox UK with a clear vision: to create an office space that truly reflected their brand identity, supported their dynamic teams, and encouraged collaboration at every level.
The goal was to move beyond a simple refresh. Harron wanted a workspace that felt welcoming, modern, and purpose-built—a professional environment with just the right dose of creativity and warmth.
Our Approach
Led by WorkBox UK designer Clarice Elliott, the design strategy centred on blending calm, neutral tones with bold accent elements—creating aspace that feels both energised and grounded.
To meet Harron’s evolving needs, we introduced a new layout thatsupported a variety of working styles. From focused individual work to collaborative brainstorming, the new design provided:
The fit-out was managed on-site by senior project manager Katherine Hughes and overseen by Matt Jackson, who delivered the entire project in just 8 weeks—on time, on budget, and in line with the high standards Harron Homes expected.
The Result
The result is a smart, collaborative workspace that’s aligned with Harron’s brand and built for the people who use it every day. It’s modern without being cold, playful without being distracting, and proudly Harron in every detail.
James Poynor, managing director at Harron Homes, said: "It was a great service. They really tailored everything to the vision that I had but then helped develop that so it went way beyond what I was looking for and created the amazing space that we have today."
He continued: "With WorkBox, we just felt an immediate sense of shared alignment, ideas, vision and lots of discussions. On the day we moved in, I was just absolutely blown away. the standard of fit out was superb, the quality of product is excellent and I think this building says it all."
We specialise in working in live environments and ensure that businesses continue to operate effectively during periods of change, even when relocating to a new site.
