Modernisation and comfort in perfect harmony
Cambrionix is a large technology firm based in Cambridge that offers next-level USB hardware.
The company approached Spacio as its existing offices prevented the operations and engineering teams from growing and evolving.
Modernisation and Comfort in Perfect Harmony
Cambrionix’s 4,000 sq ft Cambridge headquarters offered a solid base for growth but no longer supported the needs of their expanding engineering and operations teams. The existing space lacked natural light, visual energy and designated breakout areas, leading to a workplace that felt dated and restrictive.
The challenge was to modernise the office, reflect the company’s bold brand personality and create room for specialist laboratory facilities and future headcount expansion.
Before Spacio’s arrival, the office colour scheme had become jaded and diluted. An injection of bold and bright hues was required, while adhering to the familiar yellow and blue company branding meant it needed an infusion of bold and bright hues.
Moreover, certain parts of the office lacked sunlight, seeming dark and lifeless as a result, and there was insufficient provision for employee relaxation. It became apparent that additional space was necessary for both teams to flourish and work day-to-day operations seamlessly.
Limited breakout and relaxation areas posed a challenge for employees seeking respite from work. Additionally, the subpar aesthetics were unbecoming of a successful tech company, warranting an urgent need to improve visitors’ first impressions.

Using the distinctive yellow and blue brand colours of Cambrionix as the primary basis for the design, the Spacio team created a layout that reflected the company’s team and ethos. Bold blue now adorns the break-out area, along with striking LED lighting & wall graphics spelling out PLAY and BUT FIRST COFFEE. This beautifully complements blue sofas with yellow soft furnishings for a truly dazzling and modern aesthetic.
We installed an ultra-modern central office with glassed walls and a vivid colour scheme to allow both directors to see both teams. A clear differentiation was made between the work and rest areas to create a visual change from the main office floor. We also installed a yellow meeting room, mitigating the lack of natural daylight in the area by reflecting ambient light into the darkest places of the room.
The building now boasts outstanding details with wall graphics that complement the surrounding finishes. Its contemporary feel is created with fresh plants, marble accents, and wooden tones. Moreover, the ample space provided by the building allows the operational and engineering teams to expand their abilities and flourish, leading to success in the future.
Thanks to the Spacio team, Cambrionix now has Cambridge offices that will serve them well as they grow over the coming years. With an ultra-modern feel, a colour scheme that reflects the company’s values and an unmistakable upward-mobile direction, all employees now get a space they’re proud to call home.
We successfully met all the aesthetic and functional needs for Cambrionix, leaving the owners delighted with their new work base. With the job executed proficiently, it resulted in yet another satisfied customer.
“Thank you for the amazing work you have all done for us here at Cambrionix. It’s been so nice to have such a great bunch of people that are on the ball and get the job done”
