Challenges

Working within one of the UK’s busiest retail destinations meant the project required careful planning and coordination from day one.

Deliveries, site access and working hours all had to be managed around a live shopping centre environment, with minimal disruption to neighbouring retailers and customers. At the same time, the programme was fixed around a hard opening date, so maintaining momentum on site was critical.

The design also called for craft-led finishes - from the piece-by-piece installation of the herringbone floor to the bespoke joinery and textured wall treatments - which demanded precision and close quality control to achieve the right look and feel.

Strong collaboration between our team, centre management and Subdued’s project partners ensured everything stayed on track.

Seamless delivery within a live retail environment

  • High-quality, detail-driven finishes throughout

  • On-time handover ready for trading

  • A warm, welcoming store that captures the Subdued brand experience

Following completion, our team mobilised straight to the next location at Bullring Birmingham, continuing our support for Subdued’s UK rollout.

It’s always rewarding to help bring a brand’s vision to life, and we’re proud to have played a part in delivering another milestone store for Subdued’s growing portfolio.
