nvironment?

What does you office space say about you?
Andy Stewart uses me as a bad example of office design (too much wasted space with my corner desk and only a laptop on it.) I sit with the team and like to be involved with them. I think if you look at night when I leave you would see an organised person, during the day however, it is organised chaos!

ay?

Describe your perfect day?
Sunshine, a crispy bacon roll for breakfast, game of golf where I win and get a hole in one and then out with family for a lovely Italian meal. (oh and it is a Monday which would normally be a work day, but the business is booming without me.)

Earlier this month we teamed up with Dundee Contemporary Arts bringing the accredited Sony pictures documentary, Sketches of Frank Gehry to the screen. We were proud to support the event which ran from Friday 10th to Monday 13th of August.

The screening was a resounding success with many local architects and designers attending as our guests.

Everyone had a great time and enjoyed a captivating documentary about the architectural works of Frank Gehry - most famous locally for the Maggie’s Centre in Dundee.

Our Managing Director Andy Stewart, said:
“We were delighted to support this event at the DCA and hope that our guests enjoyed the documentary.”

We are currently working with Seletar Shipping providing office interior design, fit-out, office furniture and move management for their new offices based at Steadfast House, Aberdeen. Seletar Shipping will shortly move into custom fit-out offices where they will occupy 12,000 square feet of office space.

The new environment has been completely refurbished throughout and employees will look forward to working in a contemporary office environment with top of the range office and meeting areas. Seletar Shipping is Aberdeen’s leading freight forwarding and ships agent.
