iOTA Brings Modern Office Design to Life 

When iOTA took on an office fit-out for a modern corporate client, they needed furniture that balanced clean design with practical use. They chose Hawk to help create a space that feels sharp, functional and inviting.

To define areas within the open-plan layout, iOTA utilised our Grid storage system and low Planters in Classic Ash and Black. The Grid units add structure to the space without walls, offering storage, division and the flexibility to accessorise the unit with dressing items that reflect their client's brand identity. Hairpin Coffee Tables provide a light, open feel to the tea point without overwhelming the space.

The contrast of ash wood with bold black framing gives the office a crisp, architectural edge, whilst the built-in planters create a sense of balance through natural texture and life.

In a separate meeting area, the team chose our Maya Boardroom table with tile inlays in Grey Oak and Black to make a strong, modern statement. Its textured surface and minimalist form give the room an executive feel.

Alongside this space, a larger formal meeting room features a 14-person capacity Maya Boardroom in Concrete in Black with tile inlays. This provides the client with a raw, industrial aesthetic without the weight or maintenance of real concrete.

The finished office is modern and professional, with thoughtful details that enhance the space. iOTA have leveraged Hawk’s flexible, design-forward products to build a workspace that works beautifully.

As we reach the halfway point of 2025, there is more than ever to shout about at Hawk. From exciting product launches and design innovations to project successes, this year has already shaped up to be one of our most dynamic yet. Click on the image above to find out what we have been up to.

Here's to another incredible time at Clerkenwell Design Week!

It was a whirlwind few days for the Hawk team, packed with energy, great conversations and plenty of new ideas. From reconnecting with familiar faces to meeting so many new ones, we couldn’t have asked for a better CDW25.

Our coffee count got a little out of hand but we’ve come away teeming with ideas and inspiration from everything we’ve seen. There is so much creativity and innovation in the industry right now, it’s so exciting to be part of it.

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by to chat, share feedback or play a round of Compete The Canopy on our tabletop skittles game. A special mention to our amazing sales team for being on the ground all week, and to members of the wider Hawk team who travelled down to London to lend their support.

We’re already looking forward to next year, where we will be settled into our new brand-new showroom on St Johns Street. See you there!

We were absolutely thrilled (and a little bit stunned) to have taken home Environmentally Friendly Business of the Year Award and Overall Business of the Year Award at the Goole & Howdenshire Business Excellence Awards on Friday 11th April.

Winning Overall Business of the Year means so much as it recognises not just what we do, but how we do it. From our team in the office to the factory floor, every single person at Hawk plays a role in pushing us forward. Thank you again to everyone who made it possible, we still can’t quite believe it!

It means so much to be recognised for the work we’re doing, particularly around sustainability, which is such a big focus for us as a business. We were also up for Family Business of the Year, proud to have been shortlisted alongside some fantastic local companies.

Huge thanks to the organisers, committee and everyone who supports what we do at Hawk. Nights like this remind us why we love being part of such a passionate and hardworking business community. See you all again next year!

This year’s Workspace Design Show London was a great experience for Hawk. As a company passionate about designing and manufacturing innovative workplace furniture, we were thrilled to immerse ourselves in the latest trends, cutting-edge designs and forward-thinking concepts shaping the future of workspaces.

The event brought together industry leaders, designers and manufacturers, all eager to showcase and discuss the evolving landscape of workplace interiors. From sustainability-focused solutions to ergonomic innovations, the event was a testament to how workspaces are adapting to meet the needs of a dynamic and hybrid workforce.

At Hawk Furniture, we believe that great design fosters productivity, collaboration and wellbeing. Engaging with other professionals and witnessing the creativity on display reaffirmed our commitment to creating high-quality, adaptable furniture solutions that enhance modern office environments.

Key Takeaways from the Show

1. Sustainable and Responsible Design - Many exhibitors emphasised the importance of eco-friendly materials and sustainable manufacturing practices. As a company committed to sustainability, we were inspired by the strides being made in this area.
2. Flexible Workspaces - The rise of hybrid working has driven demand for flexible, multi-functional furniture solutions. We saw some fantastic examples of how modular designs can transform spaces for different work styles and needs.
3. Technology Integration - Smart furniture and integrated tech solutions are redefining the way people interact with their workspace. From height-adjustable desks to power-integrated meeting pods, the future of office furniture is more connected than ever.

One of the most rewarding aspects of the event was the opportunity to meet like-minded professionals who share our passion for workplace design. Networking with designers, architects, and industry experts gave us fresh insights and valuable collaborations that we look forward to developing in the future.

Say hello to Plum, our striking new metalwork shade.

Plum is a deep, velvety shade of purple with undertones of red. Designed to replace the discontinued Peach, Plum brings a bold yet sophisticated update to our office furniture portfolio, offering a timeless metalwork finish that complements a variety of styles.

A mix of blue and red, Plum possesses both warm and cool tones. This dual nature makes it an excellent choice for a range of interiors, from traditional to contemporary. Its low-sheen finish is a premium addition to any workspace.

One of Plum’s key strengths is its versatility – it can be a bold colour statement, a supportive backdrop or a pop of colour, depending on where and how it’s applied. Here are our suggestions on how to incorporate this colour into your office workspace:

• Neutrals: Pair our with our MFC finishes such as Classic Ash, Verade Oak or Concrete for a clean, professional aesthetic.
• Earth Tones: Complement with Halifax Oak, Swiss Elm or White Oak for a grounded and inviting look.
• Accent Shades: Pair Plum with Beech, Light Oak or White for vibrant, eye-catching contrasts.

Discover the bold versatility of Plum, the colour of modern workspaces.
