An excellent joined up approach

Expedia needed more room. However, with a relatively short lease left on their European HQ, it made sense to look at an expansion option near their Islington base.

The final solution was a building near to their main offices, let for a short-term that expired at the same time as their main HQ’s. To make sure it didn’t feel ‘temporary’, our project management team helped Expedia refurbish the premises in inspirational style.
