Transforming Space into Style: A Sophisticated Showroom for a Leading NW Distributor

We love nothing more than turning a blank canvas into a space that doesn’t just look great—but works hard for our clients too. Our latest interior design and fit-out project was exactly that. Tasked by WARE UK to create a stylish, functional showroom for their partners, we immersed ourselves into every detail—from concept to completion.

The Brief

Our client needed more than just a showroom – they needed an experience. A space where their partners could proudly showcase a wide range of premium products including crockery, glassware, cutlery, and tableware. Each partner needed a designated area that reflected their brand while maintaining a consistent, high-end showroom feel. And of course, the layout had to make sense—guiding visitors naturally through the space.

Our Approach

From day one, this was a full-service project. Our team handled the design, project management, and complete build of the showroom. Here’s a breakdown of what we did:

Stud walling was built, plastered, and painted to hide all the original exposed brickwork.
We designed and built a feature coffered ceiling, complete with integrated LED detailing, air conditioning systems, and downlights—offering both style and practicality.
New flooring was laid throughout, complementing the sleek aesthetic.
We constructed bespoke wood-laminated lighting features to add warmth and interest to the space.
Integrated planters were seamlessly constructed into the walling to add greenery and texture.
Each partner had custom-designed display units, shelving displays, and graphic zones to highlight their products whilst maintaining the showrooms clean and seamless finish.
An oversized custom meeting table (seating up to 12) was built for presentations and partner meetings.
The bar area, with both front and back bar units, adds a classy hospitality vibe for networking and events.
All showroom graphics were printed in-house and fitted on site to maintain quality and ensure brand consistency.
Even the existing window frames were sprayed to perfectly match the showroom’s elevated aesthetic.

The Result

The finished space? A classy, product-focused showroom with a natural flow between partner areas, encouraging exploration and engagement. The clever use of lighting and graphics ensures every display shines—literally—and the high-end finishes elevate the overall experience for both partners and visitors.

We’re incredibly proud of the transformation, and the photos really speak for themselves. Scroll down to see the journey from before, during, and after—and if you’re thinking of creating a showroom or branded space, we’d love to help you bring it to life.
