New look London showroom designed in collaboration with Michael Sodeau

Modern Working Environments

When we redesigned our London, UK showroom, we turned to renowned designer Michael Sodeau to create an inspiring interior that represented modern working environments found today, whilst showcasing the very best of the designs we have to offer across our portfolio.

Enlisting the help of an influential UK designer, we were looking to keep a Scandinavian feel with a British twist.

Through a mixture of lighting, furniture and fittings, the showroom is broken up into different zones, creating small environments, representative of modern working environments.

Watch - Interview with Michael Sodeau on new Flokk showroom design

A combination of meeting spaces from casual to more formal settings have been created as well as breakout zones and general work areas.

Superfluous elements have been stripped back, keeping things simple, with the workspace where Flokk staff work incorporated in a neutral way, but visually different.

The flooring was supplied by Dinesen, a Danish flooring company, creating beautiful floorboards sourced from the Black Forest.

All light fittings were provided by Scandinavian producer Wästberg, with lighting integrated in a simplistic manner, with drop pendants creating a sculptural feel. 

Swedish textile company Bolon provided additional flooring to the project.

Flokk is a 'House of Brands' featuring an array of like-minded furniture manufacturers. These include HÅG, RH, Offecct, BMA, RBM and Giroflex. You can find out more about each brand, and what they have to offer on our recently relaunched website here.

Check out our interview below to explore Michael's influences, and see more pictures from the interior project.
