Inside Hydrock’s New Bristol Office

Hydrock, a multi-disciplinary engineering consultancy delivering a fresh approach to engineering, recently hired workplace design firm Interaction to design their new offices in Bristol, England.

“One of Hydrock’s key aspirations is to provide their team with a setting that encourages wellbeing and incites a healthy lifestyle. Being ranked 9th in The Sunday Times best companies to work for in 2016 shows their dedication to fulfilling this aspiration. Interaction designed the workplace to integrate and reflect this important aspect of their business. The design reflects this ethos as soon as you step into the space, with a living wall and wooden and warm materials to make the space feel homely and welcoming. The breakout area has a large island in the tea point, perfect for team meals and general socialising. There are also screens set up for games consoles, rocking chairs that look over the Bristol docks, and a reading/quiet area,” says Interaction
