Ride Shotgun, a fast growing creative marketing agency, required a flagship Sheffield studio that clearly expressed their brand and supported a growing creative team. The challenge was to move beyond a standard office layout to create a distinctive environment that would inspire both their team and visiting clients.

The brief called for a unique architectural atmosphere: a high energy studio space that incorporated elements of domesticity, making the team feel at home while providing the technical infrastructure for a modern digital agency with built in headroom for future expansion.

The project also required delivery within a fixed programme to support the agency’s continued growth and operations.
