Norfolk-based creative office design company, Bluespace, have been working closely with Norwich City Football Club to transform their Player’s Lounge at the Colney Training Centre. When the company was approached by the football club, Bluespace were over the moon and snapped up the opportunity to work with the pride of Norwich and develop an area with the purpose of increasing team motivation and productivity. This is what the commercial interior design company in Norwich has to say about their experience:
The premises for Norwich City Football Club’s Player’s Lounge is a large conservatory. Our vision was to turn the space into a modern break out area where the team can rejuvenate after training. When planning this commercial interior design project, we had several ideas to achieve the homely, yet modern space they wanted to provide for the team. A soft colour palette to create a fresh look, warm lighting to increase the comfort levels and simple accessories to add a finishing touch, including; large televisions, mini fridges, and large drum light shades which draw the eye from the spacious conservatory roof.
By carefully selecting different pieces of luxury office furniture for the Player’s Lounge, we were able to incorporate a professional outlook for any team/business meetings that may be held here, as well as ensuring the room remained a communal and enjoyable area. With high-back gaming chairs, a staple corner sofa and a square picnic table; we’ve created a space where players can socialise and discuss match tactics, while letting off steam after an intense training session.
We already have plans to work with Norwich City Football Club again, as we start planning the design for the First Team’s restaurant and the administration offices at the training centre. We’re proud that Norwich City Football Club are happy with the work we have carried out for the training centre and look forward to continuing to build a professional relationship with them.
“It’s brilliant and Bluespace have done an extraordinary job. The lads now have a space to relax, and we’re really happy to have this opportunity. We want hard and professional work, but you have to keep in mind they are human beings. There is a lot of load and it’s important to have a familiar space where they can calm down that feels like home.” – Daniel Farke, Head Coach for Norwich City Football Club.
