INVITATION/ Clerkenwell Design TrailNewsNEWS September 2022 
INVITATION/ Join us during London Design Festival for the Clerkenwell Design Trail. Take the trail to enjoy a whistle stop tour of the leading showrooms in Clerkenwell, bringing you bang up to date with the latest workplace designs from your chosen suppliers.
Book into our interactive workshop Putting "Tailoring" to the test and shine light on the details of our tailoring service and how modifying furniture maybe the budget saving solution you need.
Campus, style.NewsNEWS August 2022 
Taking inspiration from the latest Campus Style workplace trend, we’re exploring four workplace zones and offering you creative solutions from our extensive collections of workplace upholstered furniture. Through the integration of our Tailoring Service our standard collections can be modified to maximise the space available on your project.
Multi-purpose ZONEUtilise open spaces with a diverse layout which can be easily adapted for multi-use, giving workplace managers the agility to adapt in response to changing business and employee needs. With a comprehensive collection of elements, BEE fluted provides complete flexibility. Planters, tables, power, in-line and curved seating; the collection has everything for your creativity! Yoga space? Stand up meeting hubs? Or simply a space to take a break?
Focus ZONEWe get it. Sometimes you just need a quiet space not just as protection from noise levels but also a quiet space to recharge and reset. The high sides of the Skylon workchair provide a welcome and cocooning retreat when required, while the tablet and built-in charging point provide the reassuring practical details.
Cafe ZONEAlthough sometimes unavoidable, we all like to step away from our desks and enjoy a lunch break to recharge and maybe catch up with a colleague. The mindful enjoyment of a healthy and nutritious lunch is a welcome revolution from a hastily taken snack at the desk. We work with a broad range of fabric suppliers and can give extensive advise on fabrics which are most suitable for café areas, book an appointment at our Clerkenwell showroom to explore the options from our comprehensive fabric library.
Collaboration ZONEEncourage creative collaboration with specific zones for brainstorming, planning and progressing projects. With the high back option, El work modular provides a practical space with an element of noise reduction, perfect for collaborative teamwork!
Our showroom has had quite a refresh! Get in touch to book an appointment. The newly opened Elizabeth Line makes it super quick, just a 7 minute transfer from Paddington to our local Farringdon station. For all other enquiries email magic@davisonhighley.co.uk
The Dimensions of the WorkplaceNewsNEWS July 2022 
Excerpt from The Sustainable Workplace of the Future presented during Clerkenwell Design Week with independent sustainability expert James Bell, Dragonfly Sustainability.
As part of our activities during Clerkenwell Design Week we were delighted to be joined by James Bell, Dragonfly Sustainability. We’ve been working with James for several years now, he has been instrumental in the certification of our long established sustainability credentials. His unique insight, gained from experience working with leading FMCG organisations, is fascinating and we were delighted he could join us for an introduction which will be followed up with a second talk during Clerkenwell Open in September. The four dimensions of workplace designExploring four different dimensions of workplace design; emotional, physical, technological and purposeful, can together drive behavioural, organisational and technological change to create a more sustainable, equal, healthy and prosperous workplace. We’ve summarised the key points of each below but the talk can be watched in its entirety on our Instagram channel @davison_highley
Emotional workplace.
Employees are increasingly looking for an emotional connection with employers who share their views on wellbeing and corporate governance. Attitudes towards environmental, social and governance, across all age categories, are conclusive according to recent research conducted by PwC. 1) Unily(2019), Future of the Workplace 2030+2) PwC (2021), Consumer Intelligence Series 2021
Physical workplace.
There is no question, and much has been written about the fact, that the workplace has had a dramatic shock over recent years. Data from the EY Work Reimagined study show that while workplace remains the “anchor” for personal and career wellbeing, the days of fixed desks have arguably gone with many organisations look at more zoned campus style workplaces. Collaboration has become key and has been identified during the pandemic as one of the key reasons people need to be in the workplace. This new space planning strategy often creates an entrepreneurial spirit where employees have the freedom for creativity and radical thinking. 1) Unily(2019), Future of the Workplace 2030+2) EY (2021), Work Reimagined: The sustainable and inclusive workplace of the futureTechnological workplace.
The abundant use of Zoom and Teams has unquestionably been revolutionary in the transformation of workplaces but this aspect of the technological workplace is only a small part of the story with technology also applying to the buildings which have become more human centric through the use of lighting, ventilation and temperature to optimise comfort and well being. Unily(2019), Future of the Workplace 2030+
Purposeful workplace.
Relevant to all who have been rethinking their purpose following the pandemic and key to attracting the best talent, the purposeful workplace considers a less hierarchical structure in organisation which can be encouraged through workplace design where modular and flexible zones can be re-worked and restructured keeping office spaces nimble and adaptive. 1) Unily(2019), Future of the Workplace 2030+2) PwC (2016), Putting Purpose to Work

Fabric trends/ SS22NewsNEWS March 2022 
Our love of fabrics is no secret and like a child in a sweet shop we always get excited to hear about the latest innovations and trends from our network of fabric creators. Take a closer look at what’s new for SS22.
NEW from CAMIRA
Introducing Sumi: Understated in its elegance and refined in its colouration, Sumi is a fabric which exudes serenity and style. Woven from worsted wool using fine marl yarns, this natural textile embraces a purity of composition and an impeccably simple aesthetic which makes it both without age, yet achingly current.
NEW from ULTRAFABRICS
Introducing UF Select: Developed to inspire with an array of timeless textures and tones influenced by traditional handicraft. Crafted exclusively with hand-picked and trusted mill partners UF Select showcases the innovative performance and comfort of Ultrafabrics with two new creative collections, Lino and Montage. Lino creates the look of a textile weave with its two-toned crosshatch design, soft touch, and sizeable assortment of on-trend colours. Montage has a softly weathered texture that’s rich, organic, and brought to life through an impactful range of timely neutrals and natural shades. Uniting state-of-the-art technology and sustainably-focused innovation, these are intelligent fabrics designed to do more.
NEW from VESCOM
Introducing eco-friendly upholstery fabrics: Made from post-consumer PET bottles, our 100% recycled polyester FR yarn turns the problem of plastic waste into a solution. Bottles are collected locally before being separated by type and colour, processed and converted into flakes. Four structures, one family: Designed to work in unison, the four qualities that make up our recycled upholstery family – Wilson, a basic weave; Avon, a melange; Norfolk, a grid; and Harding, a twill – honour fundamental weaving techniques. This purity and simplicity, as well as the non-directionality of most structures, makes them incredibly easy to combine with one another – and to integrate into interiors.
NEW from MUIRHEAD
Introducing Muirhead: For low carbon, high luxury leather, it’s strength is in the creation of the lowest carbon leather in the world at only 1.1kg CO2e per hide. It’s a beautiful, natural and sustainable material, trusted by brands like Mulberry, British Airways, Rolls Royce, and Princess Yachts, we well as, of course, Davison Highley.
NEW from SVENSSON
Introducing Macro: Inspired by the prism, Svensson have been exploring how fabrics can help us to distil light, how structures can bring shadows to life when the light hits them and how colour scales can live in synergy with light. With sound environmental credentials, Macro upholstery fabric is made using wool from local Scandinavian sheep. The wool-dyeing process brings to life a pattern which, when observed from a distance, blends together to create a more even surface, hence the name Macro.
NEW from YARWOOD LEATHER
Introducing three new ranges: Chosen to complement the leather look in designs, Yarwood Leather have introduced three new contract fabric ranges. Chamonix – a warm and comforting wool fabric in classic and commercial tones. Manhattan – a luxurious and glamorous velvet feel in sophisticated neutrals and deep, rich colours. Santorini – a fresh and calming linen look with timeless tones and modern brights.
Our close relationship with quality suppliers not only helps us keep pace with the latest trends but also efficiently manage the production process. Fabric is ordered immediately when an order is received, allowing us to keep clients informed of any potential delays, even proposing alternatives if there is likely to be any delivery delay. On arrival at our workshop, our experienced team inspect by hand to avoid any rare flaws and use their skill and experience to thrill both us and our clients with their pattern matching prowess.

As many of our clients know, we love our home in the heart of Clerkenwell. For 8 years we’ve been welcoming clients to our extensive showroom in Brewhouse Yard. A late 19th Century brewery building whose architecture gives a gentle nod to its historic past, with distinctive pillars and arched windows and on sunny days our outdoor courtyard provides a welcome retreat for a relaxing break, a moment to pause on a busy day.
Enlisting the immense interior design skills of Natasha Cruder, we’ve had a redesign, a time to look at the space we have and clearly focus on providing flexibility whilst optimising the customer experience.
Flexible workplace
Workplaces change. We hear this from our clients and our showroom is no exception. Sheers have been strategically hung in the space as a flexible, separation tool, to encourage the flow but also to create ‘pause’ moments. By using sheers and not heavy curtains we retain the sight lines across the space but recognise those moments to pause.
In times, of new product launches, inspirational talks and even yoga sessions, we’ll be able to adapt the space to suit the occasion.
Customer experience
Our approach was to construct a journey through the space that enabled the visitor to create personalised experiences with the products they were seeing and the space itself, whilst retaining the views across the open plan showroom – we did not want to hide the buildings features, in particular the columns and arched ceilings.
The application of plants was used to focus the eye line. Upon entry your eye is drawn to the trailing column plants, to create a light barrier between the front part of the showroom and the back. The portable potted plants have been used to direct the visitor through the space but also to create a realistic environment to showcase the furniture pieces inspired by biophilic design.
The Working Area and Teapoint are nestled in the far corner near the WCs. With walls painted a rich deep green we’ve created a warm, relaxed environment that invites collaboration and socialising. The space offers a large high table with AV and a fabric library making it ideal for meetings and presentations. The informal breakout seating in the Teapoint area act as a great way to connect the two spaces.
The first of our phased developments for the showroom is now complete!
Let us show you around! Book your appointment by emailing magic@davisonhighley.co.uk or take an online tour now.

Considered showroom design
Working with interior designer, Natasha Cruder, the Davison Highley showroom is undergoing a redesign with a focus on user navigation to encourage flow and create inviting spaces to pause; enriching the visitor experience. We’ll be introducing smart elements, such as trailing column plants, luxurious sheer fabrics, and dynamic graphic treatments, allowing flexibility for future use, whilst remaining respectful of the architectural arched ceilings and columns of the late 19th century brewery building.
Space for collaboration with BEE-fluted
Built upon the extremely popular BEE modular range, BEE-fluted takes the design to the next level with its soft fluting creating a visually dynamic look. The range of undulating straight sections and gentle curves can be tailored to meet specific requirements, creating an inviting space where employees can collaborate or relax. Compatible with the BEE modular range, designers can create a cohesive design aesthetic for the entire workplace.
Space for concentration with the Skylon work chair
Based upon the popular Skylon range, Skylon work chair combines the comfort of the Skylon sofa range with the semi-private work space of our Skylon work booth. Featuring a robust tablet table, the Skylon work chair can also be fitted with a variety of power modules to create an independent work space for both short and long term working.
On hand throughout the event will be the team who have developed and launched this year the Davison Highley Sustainable Manufacturing Philosophy. Outlining how workplace furniture can be incorporated and support sustainability goals for clients, the team are available to discuss the real details, supported by data, of how Davison Highley have sustainability at the core of their business strategy.

NEWS Concentration. Privacy. Space.
Although many can't wait to get back to the workplace, there will surely still remain a desire from employees for a little privacy, space and a sense of security. Create those workable spaces with high backed seating, positions which face outwards, enclosed booths which still allow fresh air to circulate and larger booths which may be used by one person for the moment yet can adapt to a future which looks more familiar. We've collected together some examples to inspire you!

Understanding sustainability standards
News
NEWS Understanding sustainability standards 2020
On Thursday 15th October weheld our inaugural webinar where we be explored the topic of sustainability accreditations, in the context of workplace furniture, and how to navigate them with industry expert James Bell, Dragonfly Sustainability. James has been working with Davison Highley for many years helping us realise our own sustainability goals in terms of manufacturing procedures and opportunities.
"Both across the furniture supply chain and broader commercial interiors sector, sustainability certification has become an increasingly established feature in demonstrating and promoting environmental and social benefits. Although, at the same time, this has led to a proliferation of schemes, creating confusion and complexity with regard to the specific sustainability objectives targeted by these standards. In this webinar we will examine and demystify these certification schemes, whilst offering practical guidance to enable you to make empowered decisions on your sustainability requirements.” James Bell, Dragonfly Sustainability.

It’s been a unique 6 months, a transformation on so many levels for all of us. One of our Account Managers, Caroline Atack has taken some time to consider what those changes have meant to both her and Davison Highley, whilst reflecting on industry demands and trends.
“At the end of the day the one thing I am really missing is human contact and it’s a real treat to have scheduled appointments now at our Clerkenwell showroom. Bouncing ideas off each other, interaction. I think where people can work at home they probably still will and then just come to the office when they need to work together as a team, in a focussed and mindful way. Meanwhile we remain open minded to stay connected wherever we can.”

Sustainability Matters
News
NEWS Sustainability Matters 2020
Whilst concerns for hygiene and the re-working of the workplace remains top of the agenda for many businesses, we are also seeing clients adopting a more mindful approach to purchasing where consideration is rightly given to sustainability credentials.
It's a topic which has been central to Davison Highley since our family business was created. Our circular approach effects every step we take from utilising a local supply chain, developing products to maximise resources and add value, through to the re-use of ex-showroom furniture and production off cuts within local community projects.
Whilst we're extremely proud of our accreditations, in essence they are a natural consequence of the practises we have in place across the business. Those processes and our integrity is putting us in a good place to weather the current challenges and continue to serve our clients with a timely, reliable and sustainable service.

As we all await advice in the coming week from the government on our collective return to the workplace, there is plenty of thought leadership into how the new workplace is going to shape up. One thing is for certain, it will look different for us all. From flexible work patterns, increased hygiene stations, removal of hot desking or even the addition of workpods we are sure to see the very best of creativity. We've curated some Space Inspiration for you below if you need to design in more social distancing.

Meanwhile, stay safe at home.
The red sofa.
We've probably all been seeing more of this sofa over recent weeks! Although most of our projects are for workplace, we do also work with production companies on some of the major TV shows. We're particularly proud of the iconic red sofa which we manufactured earlier this year before lockdown. It's based upon the Buzz Collection with some customisation as developed with the client.
