Shawcor Ltd

Project Overview

The owners of this thriving communications cabling manufacturer contracted McGregor Design Group, to team with their project architect on the full renovation and expansion of their existing corporate headquarters, which also housed the businesses ‘executive offices’. The project was to allow this facility to better support new functional requirements, while also integrating a new corporate image. Their love of the outdoors, nature and hunting were all to be communicated through the design of the space. The project was an intensive one that allowed the design team to work very closely with the business owners, who appreciated being involved in every detail. Options were regularly presented with the potential impact of each, to allow the owners to make their selections. The result was a fresh new space that was anchored in nature through the use of finishes such as earthy slate floors, watery hand made glass, warm wood and a generous flow of daylight through both skylights and generous perimeter windows. The experience was a pleasure for the McGregor Design Group team and resulted in an enlightened space that the owners very much enjoyed.
