North Brook End Stud Open Day_6th April 2019

Forge Design Studio were delighted to be invited to the official opening of the new specialist Mare and Foal Stable Wing at North Brook End Stud. Overton Contractors Ltd have a couple of weeks work to finish including the link between the two yards. This is the latest phase of work to be completed at the Stud and completes the realisation of the original masterplan.

We worked closely with Sarah, Douglas and the team at North Brook End Stud to realise their dream of creating a state of the facility which compliments the quality of service that they deliver.

After a great deal of hard work by all parties, (and numerous iterations!), the final result was revealed to friends, clients and visitors on Saturday. Its an absolutely fantastic facility which will allow the Team to continue to develop the level of care and service required to produce the excellent standard of horses that NBES is known for !!

The afternoon was a big success with fellow consultants, clients, friends and family joining the festivities. The birthday cake was unveiled and had to be eaten quickly before our sugar figures began melting in the heat!!

Notwithstanding the preparation for the party it’s been a busy time in the office with new leads and commissions being worked on in Romsey, Northampton and Luton.

Spring Lunch @ The Forge!

Forge Design Studio hosted a Spring Lunch on Friday 31st March.

We’ve never seen the studio busier as the guests enjoyed catching up on our latest projects, meeting the team and sampling one of our famous home-cooked lunches. The sun shone and it was great to see the garden being used.

Summer Garden Party

After a week of weather watch we welcomed a great number of our friends and colleagues to enjoy a glass of prosecco in the garden at The Forge on Friday 10th. We managed to dodge most of the showers however the new sail shades were called into action briefly and proved to be almost waterproof!

The effort that everyone made to attend was much appreciated and it was a great chance to catch-up with progress within the office. The conversion of The Forge was much admired by those that hadn’t previously visited the office – it is hard to believe that, not only have been in the new space for more than a year, but we are coming up to our third birthday.

Time passes quickly when you enjoying yourself!!
