HIMACS creates a striking and sculptural reception desk at Pitalia's new Manchester office

Real estate investor Pitalia has relocated its headquarters from Bolton to Oxford Court in Manchester’s city centre, selecting #himacs to be at the forefront of the new business HQ with a sculptural #receptiondesk designed in #himacs Steel Concrete G555. The company’s 3,200 square foot #office is set over three floors, a prime location in which to grow and develop its portfolio in the heart of Manchester.

The #receptiondesk and rear credenza top were designed by Gresham #office Furniture and fabricated by its bespoke joinery team at #greshambespoke.
“Gresham Bespoke were approached by Pitalia to #design and manufacture the bespoke joinery elements in their Manchester #office,” says Chris Waddington, Bespoke Operations Manager. “Working closely with the client, we designed a variety of items, from boardroom tables and storage solutions to a #receptiondesk with matching rear storage in #himacs. We specified #himacs due to its on-trend colours and robust characteristics, perfect for a high-use reception. The bespoke items were complemented by our vast range of seating, designed for each area." 

The new #office headquarters were given a complete overhaul by #greshambespoke and Gresham #office Furniture, who designed and manufactured the interior layout and furniture. The brief from the client, Pitalia, was that the #receptiondesk needed to have instant wow factor as well as durability. Gresham selected #himacs for its robustness as well as its on-trend colours, choosing Steel Concrete G555 for the reception and the top of the credenza unit behind it. Part of the Concrete Collection from #himacs, Steel Concrete is available in 6mm, 9mm and 12mm thicknesses and offers a sleek, contemporary look and feel, perfect for a stylish reception area.

Due to its flexibility and special characteristics, #himacs is the ideal application forbusiness premises, offices and headquarters. #himacs is robust and fire resistant, incredibly hygienic and resistant to wear and tear, scratches, stains and UV rays. Moreover, its non-porous surface makes it extremely quick and easy to clean. The thermoformable properties of #himacs also allow it to be moulded into any shape and size, making it the perfect material for creating reception areas and surfaces. The absence of visible seams also ensures a smooth, seamless look that prevents dirt, bacteria and viruses building up on the surface. This makes #himacs a Solid Surface material with unbeatable hygienic and safety properties, guaranteed by certifications that comply with LGA, Greenguard and NSF international standards.

By incorporating the benefits and unique characteristics of #himacs, Pitalia's new Manchester #office has a sculptural and robust #receptiondesk that provides an instant impact and a memorable welcome.
