Points of note

Taking inspiration from the architecture of 201 Bishopsgate, along with the new Alpari brand, we created a contemporary workplace design with an elegant and unique interior fit-out.

The strong detailing and sharp contrast of finish create a striking visual, whilst the element of transparency both to reception and back office demonstrate the size and vibrancy of the business. The large bespoke fish tank is a particular feature of this stunning turnkey Cat A / Cat B office design and fit-out project.

Client Comment

“The fantastic design and professional approach of the Maris team struck me right from the outset and, coupled with a value-for-money solution, there was no doubt in my mind who we would appoint.

What really swayed my decision, however, was the absolute commitment of the individuals in the team.”
