Northern Energy —

We recently had the pleasure of designing Northern Energy’s new HQ, a project with a simple yet powerful vision: create a space that feels like home. Not just somewhere people come to work, but a place where they genuinely want to be. From the outset, we immersed ourselves in understanding Northern Energy’s culture, values, and the way their people work day to day. That insight became the foundation of the design. Warm finishes, purposeful lighting, and relaxed, residential-style furniture bring comfort, while layouts are carefully considered to balance collaboration, focus, and flexibility.

The interiors take inspiration from the earth’s natural layers, a concept that influenced the materials, colours, and overall atmosphere of the space. Raw textures, deep greens, rust tones, and earthen browns run throughout the palette, creating a direct connection to the energy beneath our feet.

Wellbeing, accessibility, and inclusivity are always at the heart of our design approach, and this HQ was no exception. Adjustable lighting helps reduce glare and sensory overload, tactile fabrics add warmth and comfort, and quiet zones provide space for focus or restoration. The layout is intuitive and easy to navigate, ensuring every team member feels supported, comfortable, and able to thrive.

A workplace needs to adapt as seamlessly as its people do, and flexibility was a key part of the brief. On the ground floor, the teapoint and breakout area can quickly transform into what the team affectionately call “night mode”… a relaxed social hub for after-hours gatherings.
