It has it’s own beach, James Bond meeting room and even a Back To The Future themed floor – no wonder Rentalcars.com new head office has been dubbed the coolest office in Manchester.
The stunning new £2.7 million UK HQ in Fountain Street is the hottest office in the city and Diamond Interiors are proud to have created such a fab place to work.
Diamond Interiors supplied the furniture and fittings for OBI Property, the project managers and designers on the incredible project.
They transformed 38,000 sq feet of office floor at 35 Fountain Street for rentalcars.com who have taken the second to sixth floors of their city centre building in their 10th anniversary year.
Rentalcars.com are one of the largest car rental firms in the world hiring a staggering five million vehicles every year employing more than 350 members of staff in Manchester alone.
The move to Fountain Street will create a further 200 jobs and the company were determined to create an office space that would ensure a happy workforce.
Rentalcars.com CEO Ian Brown, said: “At Rentalcars.com we’re proud to be ‘anything but ordinary’ and we wanted a new office space that would really reflect this ethos and the diversity of our team.
“That’s why we invested so much time and money in creating an office space like no other in Manchester.
“We’re delighted with what we’ve achieved with the building. The reaction from all of our colleagues and visitors so far has been fantastic.”
Manchester based OBI Property represented rentalcars.com on acquiring the new lease and were appointed to design and project manage the new fit out, the biggest property deal in Manchester in 2015.
The team created a totally unique building with each floor of Fountain Street hosting it’s own theme including drive-in movies, metropolis, road trip and world cars.
Each floor also contains quirky meeting rooms including James Bond, Manchester, Las Vegas and Back To The Future and a number of fun ‘break-out’ rooms including an open air cinema, PS4 room, a tranquil park and a beach on the top floor complete with beach huts, a Starbucks bar and pool table in a car!
Diamond Interiors MD Nick Pollitt, said: “It was an exciting project to be part of and the results are absolutely stunning.
“We worked with OBI Property sourcing and installing the furniture and bespoke fittings design to compliment and enhance the themes embraced for each floor.
“The final results are an absolutely stunning office that will ensure a happy and motivated workforce.”
