R Nickson Interiors worked with Chime Contract and Boss Design to translate a newly rebranded client’s identity into the workplace itself. Colour-led seating carries the brand through the space, and areas that once sat unused are now where the team gathers, collaborates and works.
The client, JBT Marel, had just completed an extensive rebrand, and its marketing team had built a detailed brand kit to go with it. R Nickson Interiors was asked to turn that identity into a physical environment, one that reflects the client’s brand direction in every detail.
It was also a scope outside the firm’s day-to-day work, so the right products and the right support were just as important as the look.
Nicole and her team were new to Boss Design. Chime Contract recommended a selection of products, and the clean lines, fabric options and design flexibility were an immediate fit. As Nicole put it:
“Boss gave us the ability to get there without compromising the design.”
Working with Chime Contract, R Nickson Interiors specified Bodie, Kato, Arran and Paloma together.
Each brings something different, from the warmth of Kato’s crafted timber frame to the sculpted elegance of Paloma, but all four share clean lines, real comfort and a wide choice of fabrics and colours. That mix gave the design team the freedom to bring the brand to life while keeping the space cohesive, and gave the client’s team plenty of ways to sit, meet and settle in.
Support from start to finish
For a project outside the firm’s usual scope, guidance mattered as much as product. Nicole valued a team that answered questions, made recommendations and stayed in touch throughout. In her words: “There was a constant flow of information and follow-up throughout the process, and we always felt supported.”
That left the designers free to focus on the vision, knowing the technical details were handled.
A true partnership
Behind the project was a three-way collaboration between Chime Contract, Boss Design and R Nickson Interiors, each bringing a different perspective and depth of industry experience. As Heather, President and Owner of Chime Contract, said: “Working alongside Nicole and the team was a truly rewarding experience. We each brought a different perspective and depth of industry experience that complemented one another beautifully. This project exemplified the strength of a collaborative partnership between Chima Contract, Boss, and R. Nickson Interiors.”
The result
The client’s team loves the colour, the comfort and the attention to detail. The bigger story is how the space is used. As Nicole shared:
“Areas that previously went unused have become places where people naturally gather, collaborate, and work.”
For Nicole, that’s the most rewarding part: the design changed how the team uses the space.
