Lionsgate are at the forefront of the UK Film
production industry, involved in a wide range of films from Dirty Dancing to Harry Brown. They were keen to create a sophisticated space that could appeal to anyone from the Talent in the Films to their Bank Manager.
The client had already picked the building, 60
Charlotte St which was a newly refurbished building to a CAT A finish.
Not only were we asked to create a contemporary Client Space and Reception, but a workspace that reflected Lionsgate's identity. The office had to reflect their brand identity; Area Sq accomplished this through moving imagery and of course film posters.
Naturally the staff had a lot of marketing material, including thousands of DVD's. This was one of the main drivers for a totally new storage system which coped well with the demands of the varying sizes of boxes and paraphernalia that arrives every day.
The open plan has a very organic feel due to the 120 degree workstations used and Area Sq tried, in consultation with the staff, to keep the offices to a minimum to create the feeling of space, light and communication.
