A well-designed office space is more than just desks and chairs — it’s a working environment that boosts productivity, enhances staff wellbeing, and reflects your brand identity. At Derbyshire Specialists Group, we specialise in office fit outs across Derby and the Midlands, providing tailored solutions for new, expanding, or rebranding businesses.

Whether you're moving into a new space or refurbishing your current premises, we offer end-to-end project management to create an office environment that’s functional, efficient, and inspiring.

An office fit out refers to the process of preparing an interior space for occupation. This can include everything from flooring, ceilings, partitions and lighting to complete reconfigurations and custom furniture installation. Our office fit out services include:

• Space planning and layout design
• Partition walls and glass dividers
• Suspended ceilings and lighting systems
• Flooring installation (carpet tiles, vinyl, hardwood)
• Electrical and data cabling
• HVAC and ventilation upgrades
• Bespoke joinery and furniture

We work closely with business owners, architects, and designers to ensure every element is considered — from staff breakout areas to boardrooms and reception spaces.

No two businesses operate the same, which is why our office design service starts with a deep understanding of your team, your work culture, and your future growth plans. Whether you're aiming for a modern open-plan look or prefer defined work zones with private offices, our designs combine aesthetics with ergonomics.

Our experienced team ensures:

• Smooth traffic flow throughout the space
• Efficient use of natural and artificial lighting
• Comfortable noise levels and soundproofing where needed
• Smart storage solutions and decluttered design

Our designs are built with wellbeing and productivity in mind, resulting in a smarter workspace where your team can thrive.

Office fit outs tend to be more staff-oriented — focused on workflows, IT infrastructure, meeting areas, and flexible use of space. In contrast, retail refurbishments are customer-facing, with emphasis on layout, branding, and shopper experience (more on that below).

Your shop’s interior is the first thing customers notice — and first impressions count. Whether you're launching a new retail space or upgrading an existing store, we provide complete retail and shop refurbishment services in Derby that help you attract customers and keep them engaged.

From high street boutiques to multi-unit rollouts, we understand the unique demands of retail environments. We deliver stylish, practical, and brand-led interiors that maximise footfall, encourage browsing, and drive sales.

Our retail refurbishment services are designed to reflect your brand identity while enhancing customer experience. We manage everything from minor cosmetic upgrades to full-scale structural reworks, including:

• Retail layout reconfiguration
• Feature walls and display units
• Bespoke shelving and product displays
• Lighting design and installation
• Branding integration (signage, colours, materials)
• Flooring and wall finishes
• Electrical and security systems
• Fitting rooms, tills, and staff areas

We understand that time is money, especially in retail. Our team works efficiently and discreetly, often outside of trading hours, to minimise downtime and disruption to your business.

Retail refurbishment requires a strong understanding of customer psychology and how shoppers interact with your space. Our designs are strategically planned to guide visitors through the store, highlight key products, and create memorable brand moments.

We help you:

• Increase dwell time with intuitive layout design
• Showcase high-margin items through effective display placement
• Build brand loyalty through immersive and consistent interior styling
• Ensure accessibility for all customers, including those with mobility needs
  

Unlike office fit outs, which prioritise staff functionality, retail refurbishments focus on aesthetics, customer interaction, and sales conversions. Visual appeal, lighting design, and ease of movement are key priorities — alongside creating Instagrammable moments and supporting your marketing strategy.
