Grosvenor Interiors
are delighted to announce that they are now available to improve education
environments for students and staff using their full range of services
Colin Horn, Managing Director, explains:
For over 25 years, Grosvenor
have been providing a first-class
service to those who want to
improve their environment,
whether it be at home or work
to improve the environment for young
learners, teachers and support staff in
the same way that we have done for
patients and staff in hospitals for the
last 15 years.
During the past 15 years, our focus has
changed and we have concentrated on
providing our services to charities who
fund the cost of enhancements within
hospitals. A really successful part of
our offering is our large scale digitally
printed vinyl images, using our skills as
interior designers and in particular our
understanding of human behaviour
and how imaging can influence the
brain, we use a variety of scenes,
often of nature, to bring the outdoors
inside for those who are unable to
go outside and improve the working
environment for hospital staff. We have
transformed all types of areas within
numerous hospitals including, children’s
playrooms, Teenage Cancer Trust
units, staff wellness rooms, isolation
rooms, lecture theatres, seminar rooms
and even a Maternity Bereavement
suite where we created a space
supportive to parents facing the
devastating experience of giving birth
to a stillborn child. We are now using
our expertise to enhance learning
environments and promote wellbeing
in schools, colleges and universities.
Whether your need is for a new interior
space or simply to create some
messaging within your corridors or
other rooms, we work with you to find
an appropriate solution.
We pride ourselves on being excellent
listeners and having a very caring and
compassionate approach. We don’t
dictate to our customers exactly what
they need. On the contrary, we will
listen very carefully to what each
organisation wishes to achieve and
our experienced designers will create
designs to match their objectives
within the budget available. We believe
passionately that the quality of your
environment has a direct impact on
how you feel, this is why we are so keen
Our passion for improving
environments and our caring
approach continues in the way we
interact with school leaders and staff
once they have accepted our designs.
We will install the wall glamour at a
time convenient to schools/colleges
universities (frequently in the school
holidays or out of hours) and will work
with those organisations to minimise
the impact of the installation work but
maximise the impact of the finished
spaces.
Our installation teams are experienced
at being flexible and accommodating
during their time on site. Following
a recent major installation at a
secondary school, the Site Manager
wrote to us to say that in his 25 years at
the school, it is “without doubt the most
brilliantly organised and finished works
I have experienced. It was planned and
executed in the most professional way
from start to finish and by an absolutely
great bunch of people. I would
recommend you 100%.”
Offering a national service, Grosvenor
specialise in creating spaces that are
uplifting for everyone who encounters
them and have a reputation for being a
pleasure to work with. We have
installation teams based around the
country, so your location is never an
issue. When installing our vinyl
graphics, its class O fire rating is
reassuring for site managers and its
ability to be easily cleaned with regular
cleaning products is a bonus.
More and more, schools, colleges and
universities are introducing wellbeing
rooms where students who need to
can take some time out. But the
impact of these spaces can be
improved dramatically with the right
environment. Equally, entrance halls,
learning resource centres, corridors,
classrooms, dining spaces, meeting
rooms and many other indoor and
outdoor spaces can be transformed
from drab, dull areas utilising
noticeboards that frequently need
refreshing into areas with high quality
interiors, both in terms of the durability
of the product used and the impact of
the designs used, to create an uplifting
environment for everyone who uses
them.
From one wall to a whole school
project, Grosvenor Interiors can
transform learning environments,
creating relaxing, motivating and
uplifting areas for both learners and
staff that can really make a difference
to performance and create a stunning
visual impact for visitors.
With Open Evenings looming, it’s a
perfect time for educators to think
about promoting their establishments,
not just in terms of what they do for
their students, but how the building
looks as people recognise more and
more that your working environment
affects your mood dramatically.
