A Look Inside 5 of the UK’s Most Creative Offices!

A whopping 1/3 of the average person’s life is spent at work, so it’s no surprise that companies are becoming increasingly creative with their office spaces, in order to keep their employees happy, stimulated and on the ball. Companies such as Google are famed for their creative office spaces, which offer relaxation areas and play dens for children, to name but a few unique facilities. The UK is also home to numerous cool and quirky workspaces, so we’ve rounded up our pick of 5 of the most creative offices you can find – all based here, in the UK!

1. Zoopla

This may come as a surprise, but online property rental giant Zoopla has one of the most unique offices we’ve discovered. Situated in London, the office is designed to portray a ‘house’, aimed at giving employees a feeling of being at home when they arrive at work. The office features a ‘living room’, a ‘dining room’, and a ‘treehouse’, to name a few of the themed areas in the London Bridge nest, and offers gym services (with ping pong coaching) as well as the “best free grub”.

2. Money.co.uk

Online comparison site, Money.co.uk has offices based in Gloucestershire, that are set in a Victorian castle, yes, a Victorian castle. The company’s director, Chris Morling, places a huge emphasis on the wellbeing of his staff and he really does make no exceptions. The office has a Star Wars themed cinema and meeting rooms modelled after ice caves and ski lodges. What makes these offices extra ‘Bond’, is the secret door which leads to a gym, so that employees can exercise their bodies and their minds, all within the workplace!

3. Innocent

With the quirky catchphrases featured on every bottle of an Innocent smoothie, it’s no surprise that their offices are just as unique. The Innocent brand focuses on keeping their smoothies completely natural, and so they try to reflect this in the way they operate their London HQ. Cited as an employee favourite, the Fruit Towers are a hub in which employees relax, as well as chow down – it also plays host to food themed parties and events, where the company caters food to treat their employees.

4. Itison

Travelling a little farther afield, Glasgow-based offices for Itison are situated in a converted A-list building in the bustling city. An online deals site, the company strives for an enjoyable work environment, that reflects both the company itself, and the companies they partner with. The office houses a yoga studio, a fully-functioning bar and a statement tree, which illuminates every time a new employee is hired – talk about a welcome!

5. Superdrug

For something a little different, Superdrug’s offices certainly reflect their retail sites. If you didn’t know it was an office, you might think it was a spa, with in-house brow and nail bars, a wellness and yoga studio and designated dining areas that allow employees to relax, enjoy and er, work.

And if you can believe it, these are just a few of the most creative offices in the UK, there’s many more that put a spin on traditional views of work, and foster an environment for employees that is not only welcoming, but also ideal.
