Amcor
Refurbishment
Project Overview
Amcor, a multinational packaging company with sites across the UK, approached Acorn Works to refurbish the executive boardroom and associated meeting areas at their Norwich facility. The space was outdated and in need of a complete redesign to better reflect Amcor’s corporate identity and support a more dynamic, professional environment for high-level meetings and presentations.
The aim was to transform the area into a modern, branded workspace with improved acoustics, lighting, and functionality – providing a setting suitable for both internal collaboration and client-facing presentations.
Our Approach
Design & Planning
Our in-house team created a tailored concept that balanced a contemporary aesthetic with corporate professionalism. Acoustic assessments and lighting studies were conducted to inform the final layout. We worked closely with Amcor stakeholders to ensure the design aligned with their vision and operational needs.
Construction & Installation
The existing boardroom was stripped of its dated fittings, including carpets, AV systems, and furniture. We installed:
A bespoke conference table and ergonomic seating
Commercial-grade carpet tiles
LED lighting to brighten and modernise the space
Branding & Finishes
To enhance Amcor’s brand presence, we:
Installed a digital media wall for welcome messages and presentations
Applied sound-dampening wall panels in the company’s colour scheme
Fitted custom-lit display cabinets to showcase Amcor’s product range
Visualisation Through CGI
To help Amcor visualise the proposed transformation, our design team produced high-quality CGI renders ahead of the refurbishment. These visuals played a key role in communicating the intended look and feel of the space, allowing stakeholders to preview material choices, layout changes, and branded finishes in a realistic context.
By using CGI during the planning stage, we were able to refine the design in response to feedback and ensure confidence in the final scheme – streamlining the decision-making process and helping the project move forward with clarity and precision.
The Result
The finished boardroom suite now provides a bright, welcoming, and fully equipped environment that reflects Amcor’s forward-thinking ethos. It supports more effective meetings and creates a strong first impression for visitors and clients alike.
