The project was a complex process of space planning, responding to customer needs for privacy and personal service as well as Harrods requirements to ensure a smooth processing in the handling of approximately 400,000 enquiries per year. The design approach balanced a contemporary take with a slightly retro style working environment, combining wood panelling, ribbed glass privacy screens and 60’s style table lights that would not be out of place as part of a Mad Men set.
