Hull, UK
Chameleon Business Interiors embarked on a transformative journey with Scholl, an established brand in foot care.
Post the 2021 divestment by Reckitt, Scholl sought a fresh workspace in Hull while maintaining a strong city presence and investing in their workforce. The vision was to create an inspiring workspace, recognising the shifting work dynamics due to increased remote work. The goal was to entice employees back to a dynamic office, fostering collaboration, connectivity, and attracting new talent. Situated at Two Humber Quays, Hull, the new space not only offered stunning views of the Humber but also positioned Scholl amidst a vibrant business community, enabling mutual growth and support.
An environment for productive collaboration and innovation
Scholl, a reputable name in foot care, collaborated with us to revamp their workspace in Hull. The objective was clear: emphasise collaboration and connection among employees, incorporate lab spaces, and seamlessly integrate the brand’s identity within the design. This alignment of goals ensured a workspace that not only reflected Scholl’s mission but also provided a conducive environment for productive collaboration and innovation.
Chameleon Business Interiors undertook an extensive scope of work, ranging from workplace consultancy to interior design, fit-out, furniture provision, and cutting-edge technology integration. The meticulous attention to detail in these domains was pivotal in manifesting Scholl’s vision of a modern, collaborative workspace that resonated with their brand ethos and catered to the multifaceted needs of their teams.
A destination workspace
Chameleon Business Interiors curated a destination office for Scholl in Hull, strategically designed to maximise functionality and engagement. The office featured an array of breakout spaces, fostering impromptu meetings and collaboration across various departments, while diverse meeting areas, including boardrooms and soundproof booths, catered to varied communication needs. Cutting-edge technology seamlessly connected the Hull office with other locations, facilitating efficient collaboration. Notably, client welcome areas exuded a sense of hospitality and professionalism, and Scholl’s brand identity and rich history were thoughtfully woven into the design. The inclusion of specialised lab spaces for technical work, an auditorium for learning and development, and socialisation and relaxation areas prioritised employee well-being and team building. The incorporation of biophilic design elements, such as abundant natural lighting and natural materials, further bolstered employee wellness, making the Scholl office in Hull a vibrant hub of productivity and growth. This successful transformation not only aligned with Scholl’s growth plans but also showcased their commitment to creating a vibrant and productive work environment.

Day 2 Care
The space that Chameleon have created has reinvigorated our working environment. We are now able to have multiple functions of our business within one space allowing for easier networking and collaboration. The designs incorporated things we were passionate about as a business and our creative ideas and we are so happy with the result. Chameleon were great to work with throughout the entire process and I would highly recommend using them for an office fit out.
