Nokia Telecom Corporation
NAIROBI, KENYA
Nokia commissioned Triad Architects to plan the fit-out of their Nairobi office.
The main challenge in the project was that the client had no representative in the
country and Triad therefore had the responsibility of managing the whole project from
the planning, through the construction phase to the handing over, with the project progress
being reported to the client via weekly telephone conferences.
Planning an office for a renowned client like Nokia was challenging and Triad had to
ensure that the design and the material and colours used reflected the quality expected
by the client. The office fit-out, which was completed in mid-January, had to be
carried out during the Christmas break and Triad had to intensify site supervision to
ensure that the tight programme was met.
The choice of the proper contractor for this job was a key criterion because of the
limited time scale and to ensure workmanship of international standard.
The project, which was completed in January 2006, portrays the desired straight-forward,
high quality design, complemented by a pleasant and contemporary colour scheme.
