A CAT A and CAT B transformation of a historic property.

Opening its first Bath bank in 2007, Swedish-founded Handelsbanken has since steadily grown its customer base in the city.

Relocating from Upper Borough Walls to a property on Henry Street (previously home to Barclays Bank), Handelsbanken called on Interaction to complete the full CAT A and CAT B transformation of the property. Key aspects of the brief included opening up the space and creating a modern atmosphere for the customer-focused team.

Flexibility in a historic setting

A unique workplace for a unique finance brand

After 9 weeks on site, Interaction’s design and projects teams transformed the space into a modern environment fit for Handelsbanken’s fantastic reputation. This is particularly key given that the firm’s success is based on prioritising word-of-mouth growth, rather than marketing or branding.

As well as a unique design that matches the firm’s individuality in the sector, the new space offers an array of meeting and working spaces – in addition to making the most of existing historical features. The overall result is an appealing environment for staff and customers alike.
