Alexander House Office Refurbishment, Cardiff Metropolitan University
PDR is a world leading design consultancy and applied research facility owned by Cardiff Metropolitan University. The business operates independently from the University, operating internationally with world renowned industries including healthcare equipment developers, banks and retailers.
The project facilitated PDR’s move off the university campus to a separate facility bought by the University. Austin-Smith:Lord’s interior designers carried out full design services for the disused and dated 1980s three storey building, converting it into contemporary offices representative of the design quality PDR strive for. Key to the success of the project was the consultation process with end users to understand the vision of the organisation, workflows and practical requirements.
