Caitlin Joins the team as Workplace Designer
We’ve strengthened our design team by welcoming Caitlin Houlbrook as a Workplace Designer.
Caitlin is relocating to the East Midlands having worked in similar roles for leading London based office designers. She is also a WELL Accredited Professional (WELL AP) and holds a BA in Product Design from Nottingham Trent University.
WELL AP practitioners are recognised for their expertise in the WELL Building Standard (WELL) which aims to advance human health and wellness in buildings and communities around the world.
We already have a WELL AP in the team (Rebecca!) and our HQ in Ashby de la Zouch was the first business in the East Midlands to achieve the WELL Health-Safety rating.
Commenting on her new role Caitlin said. “I am really pleased to be joining Blueprint Interiors as their values align closely with my own. As a WELL AP I am looking forward to using my skills in a business that supports and promotes these standards when creating workplaces that support healthy and happy employees.”
Our Creative Director Chloe added, “Sustainability, mental wellbeing and emotional health are just as important to embrace when creating productive workplaces. The WELL Building Standard is at the heart of our process so that our designs help protect the planet and look after our people. With Caitlin as part of our team we will be able to encourage more businesses to embrace these design principles and incorporate sustainability into their workplace.”
The WELL building standard is a programme designed to help businesses create health-first office spaces for their employees.
By becoming WELL certified, organisations can profit from various financial and performance benefits, from reduced staff turnover and sick leave to increased productivity. This not only improves employees’ health, but also the company’s bottom line.
Our team recently supported East Midlands Chamber to achieve the WELL Health-Safety Rating at its Chesterfield and Nottingham offices.
With several new and exciting office fit-out wins already secured this year and a strong pipeline of workplace consultancy and design projects underway, 2024 has got off to a great start for us, and we look forward to bringing Caitlin along with us as we continue to grow.
