Polestar Showroom

Company Background

Polestar is a premium electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer, originally established in 1996 as a high-performance motorsport division of Volvo Cars. Headquartered in Gothenburg, Sweden, Polestar was redefined in 2017 as a standalone brand specialising in the design and production of electric cars, reflecting the automotive industry’s shift towards sustainability and innovation.

In addition to manufacturing vehicles, Polestar is dedicated to promoting transparency and ethical practices in the automotive industry. The company publishes Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) of its cars to provide detailed insights into their environmental impacts, and it strives to achieve climate neutrality throughout its supply chain and operations by 2040.

Project Background

The project entailed the transformation of an empty warehouse located at an old military site into a cutting-edge sales centre for Polestar new car showroom. The facility serves multiple functions over 2 floors, including showcasing the latest cars, providing office space for business operations. The ground floor is utilised as a car showroom, while the first floor houses office space, including a mix of credit support and administrative staff, as well as the UK business leaders. The project also included the installation of state-of-the-art showroom, meeting facilities and a dedicated presentation area for official press launches of new products.

Project Objective

The primary objective of this project was to convert the existing shell and core structure of the warehouse into a fully functional, state-of-the-art office and showroom. The facility now provides an innovative and professional environment that reflects the brand’s image and supports the launch and promotion of new cars from Polestar. The ground floor showroom displays the latest car models, while the first-floor office space offers a modern workspace for the company’s administrative and support teams. Additionally, the facility will include a dedicated space for press events, enhancing the company’s ability to conduct official product launches.

The project was fully completed within the 24 weeks schedule. This timeframe includes the interior fit-out of the Car showroom and office spaces, installation of technological infrastructure, and final preparations for the facility’s operational launch.
