Jan 2025
Flexible short-term office space during HQ renovation
Evolve Creative Solutions has been delivering award-winning 3D brand experiences worldwide since 2008. The company provides design, build and project management services across multiple sectors to create high-impact, immersive spaces.
With a global client base and a reputation for creativity, Evolve is a recognised leader in the brand experience industry.
It required a temporary office solution that could support both its core office-based team and a wider field team, who needed space for meetings and collaborative work.
Without suitable short-term facilities, the business risked disruption to projects, client service and staff productivity during the refurbishment period.
Collaborate provided a private 12-desk office overlooking Woking High Street, complete with an adjacent meeting room and access to shared breakout areas and a well-stocked kitchen.
The package was offered on a flexible basis, with a short fixed-term agreement followed by a rolling arrangement, accommodating delays to Evolve’s renovation project.
Central Woking’s location, with easy access to parking, public transport and nearby amenities, ensured convenience for staff and visiting team members. Additional meeting rooms and spare offices at Collaborate meant Evolve could hold video calls and client meetings without disrupting its usual working style.
Evolve was able to maintain business continuity during a potentially disruptive period, ensuring staff had a convenient, professional environment in which to work and collaborate.
The flexibility of the terms gave Evolve peace of mind as its HQ renovation timeline shifted, removing pressure and stress.
Employees appreciated the central location, easy transport links, and additional facilities - creating a seamless “home from home” experience.
“The team at Collaborate were very flexible and helpful throughout our stay, we’d certainly recommend them for a temporary or long-term serviced office stay.” Richard, Creative Director, Evolve Creative Solutions “We really enjoyed our time at Collaborate. The location is so central, just metres from the train station and with shops and cafes all around in a buzzing, busy high-street. The free biscuits in the kitchen were a nice bonus too!” Elizabeth Haworth, Marketing Director, Evolve Creative Solutions
By providing a tailored, flexible serviced office solution, Collaborate enabled Evolve Creative Solutions to continue operating smoothly while its headquarters underwent refurbishment. The partnership delivered a stress-free, short-term base that combined convenience with flexibility, demonstrating how Collaborate can adapt to client timelines and evolving needs. Looking ahead, the experience shows that Evolve can always count on Collaborate should future temporary or satellite space be required.
Since opening in 2015, Collaborate has provided workspaces that combine convenience, flexibility, and a supportive atmosphere. For businesses looking for a practical, modern base that evolves with them, it’s a place where work works better. To find out more about Collaborate’s flexible workspaces, visit collaborate.works
