Since our appointment in the latter half of 2015, the Oaktree Interiors team have made incredible progress on-site for Tangle Teezers Limited. Aside from the benefits of working alongside a well-known brand, our team were also overjoyed to work on their office design in London within the historic building that is the Brixton Academy.
Tangle Teezers Ltd is the company behind the industry-leading Tangle Teezers product, a hairbrush which has taken the market by storm. Perhaps most notably, the head of Tangle Teezers, Shaun Pulfrey, appeared on the television programme Dragon's Den and was turned down by all potential investors.
Today, Tangle Teezers are amongst the world's best-selling hairbrushes, promoted by hair salons, stores and beauty divisions all across the world. Now trading in more than 62 countries, the brand is worth more than £65 million and has won dozens of industry awards for innovation and design, including two Queens' Awards for International Trade.
Pulfrey, looking to create an inspiring and creative space for his staff as a thank you for all their hard work and support over the past five years, needed Tangle Teezers' new HQ to be practical without losing sight of their origins, their branding and everything that the Tangle Teezers brand is about.
Following an extremely competitive design pitch process for the office design in London, Oaktree competed against three other major London firms before being awarded the contract. Shaun himself was so impressed with the initial office interior design we supplied that he said he would “hardly change a thing".
Not only are the entire Oaktree team delighted to be working for such a unique brand as Tangle Teezers, but our team were proud to work across the 7,260 square feet of office space in the Brixton Academy. Interestingly, whilst going about their duties our teams have found themselves walking across the polished ballroom floors of the old Astoria, one of London's most famous cinema/theatres.
The design itself included the latest in modern trends towards open-plan areas for specific workstations and informal meetings, although the office space itself retains many of the original features we've included lots of contemporary facilities too, so that Tangle Teezers are well placed to accommodate and serve their many international visitors and global business people.
One of the unique features of the design was to provide a mock hairdressing salon to allow the space to be used for demonstrations and product launches with enough space for any visiting film crews, professional photographers and waiting models.
The final project is due to be handed over towards the end of January, allowing Tangle Teezers to start the New Year in their fantastic new office space, designed to meet the brand's unique requirements.
Here at Oaktree Interiors, we have been providing unique office refurbishment and design to companies of all shapes and sizes for many years. Our office designs in London are created from up the ground up, with our customer's specific needs and requirements in mind. We don't believe in following trends, we believe in creating practical and inspiring workspaces to help employees and businesses grow into their maximum potential.
