Transforming a Historic Bank Vault into a Modern Boardroom
Victor Finance | Boardroom design and development
Victor Finance is an asset finance broker that caters to businesses with turnovers between £50,000 and £100 million. As a dynamic American company, Victor Finance sought to establish a UK-based office to broaden their international reach. Their chosen location was a former bank building, rich in historical significance, which required a careful blend of preservation and modernisation to create an efficient workspace for their staff.
Initial Problem:
Victor Finance faced the challenge of transforming a historic bank building into a modern office while maintaining its historical essence. A key aspect of the project was the conversion of a former bank vault into a state-of-the-art boardroom. This unique requirement necessitated a design that respected the original architecture and character of the space while integrating contemporary elements to meet their operational needs.
Discovery and Approach:
Victor Finance was introduced to Nolan Interiors through a mutual Patreon membership. This connection facilitated initial discussions and set the stage for a collaborative project aimed at creating a distinctive and functional office space.
Nolan Interiors undertook an extensive scope of work to address Victor Finance’s needs, including:
Developing detailed design plans that honoured the building’s historical architecture while incorporating modern functionalities.
Installing flooring solutions that complemented the aesthetic and structural requirements of the historic building.
Designing and implementing signage that blended seamlessly with the office’s vintage and contemporary elements.
Providing a range of furniture options catering to budgetary constraints and stylistic preferences, ensuring comfort and functionality.
Transforming the former bank vault into a sophisticated and secure boardroom, featuring modern amenities while preserving the unique character of the space.
Project Timeline:
The project was meticulously planned and executed over a period of three months. All design plans, furniture orders, and installations were completed within this timeframe, ensuring a smooth and timely transformation of the office space.
Collaboration and Communication:
Throughout the project, Nolan Interiors maintained frequent communication with Victor Finance, conducting regular onsite visits and updates to ensure that every aspect of the project aligned with their vision and requirements.
The project was successfully completed within the three-month timeline, resulting in a modern, efficient, and historically respectful office space for Victor Finance. The highlight of the project was the transformation of the former bank vault into an impressive boardroom, which seamlessly combined security, functionality, and historical charm.
Conclusion
The partnership between Victor Finance and Nolan Interiors demonstrates the power of thoughtful design and meticulous planning in transforming historical spaces into modern workplaces. Nolan Interiors’ expertise and dedication to client satisfaction enabled Victor Finance to establish a UK office that not only meets their operational needs but also preserves the unique historical essence of the building.
