A note for Kinrise

Kilian, it was a real pleasure to spend an hour in your building in Leeds. Walking through it, one thing was obvious. You already understand the thing we care about most, that the most loved workplaces are almost always the ones with a story, given new life rather than knocked down and started again.

When you asked whether we do interiors, I think I undersold us. So here it is, properly.

We have always designed beautiful interiors. For more than twenty years, the spaces inside our buildings, the lobbies, the receptions, the stairs and the places people actually move through every day, have been considered as carefully as the architecture around them. For commercial clients like British Land and U+I, that has meant taking tired heritage and post war buildings and turning them into workplaces that tenants choose, stay in, and talk about. Exactly the work you do at Kinrise, restoring iconic but unloved buildings into spaces people genuinely want to be in.

This is a quick look at two of those, and a little of everything else we have made along the way.
