The Optivo team chose Teal as a design partner on this landmark project following a competitive tender to provide full FF&E, including furniture and household items. Optivo were determined to offer a full ‘step into home’ service, and felt this could be achieved with Teal’s best-in-class product and UK manufacturing expertise. Teal successfully delivered a high quality and flexible living environment, supporting Optivo’sdesign vision and ‘enhancing lives’ philosophy.
The overall design of the accommodation is contemporary, using modern materials and technology, perfectly suited to the large range of products and styles available from the Teal Key worker accommodation portfolio. Furniture and decor work in-line with Optivo’s ‘Keyworker Design Statement’ and colour choices, with a fresh colour palette and a mixture of modern seating, dining and bedroom spaces. Teal worked alongside the appointed contractor ‘United Living’ and provided full project management, delivery and installation throughout thisprestigious new build project.
