Case Study: West Midlands Growth Company achieves a more agile, sustainable workspace with Oktra

West Midlands Growth Company transforms a 4,700 sq ft Birmingham office in 7 weeks with Oktra

The West Midlands Growth Company, an economic development agency, faced the challenge of relocating from a serviced office to their own space in time for the 2022 Commonwealth Games. They needed a professional environment to host events and support their staff through a period of high demand. Oktra provided office design and fit-out services to create a new workspace that would meet these needs.

Oktra designed a 4,700 sq ft agile office for the client in Birmingham's Colmore Building. The solution featured an open plan layout with flexible work zones, call pods, and meeting booths to enhance efficiency. A key focus was on creating a welcoming guest experience with branded areas and a versatile meeting suite. Sustainable values were incorporated by refurbishing existing furniture and using materials like recycled plastic. The result was a more efficient work environment that supports employee wellbeing and provides a professional space for client entertainment.
