Bespoke Workplace Bars, Teapoints and Islands
Bespoke Workplace Bars, Tea points & Island Units
Bespoke workplace bars, Tea points and island units bring people together. With the UK’s enduring love of coffee and tea, these spaces have become a central feature within modern offices—supporting collaboration, informal meetings, and everyday interaction.
Whether positioned within a breakout area, office kitchen, or open-plan workspace, our bar and island units are designed to complement the surrounding environment while delivering practical, high-performance solutions.
Designed Around the Way You Work
No two workplaces are the same, and neither are our solutions. We create bespoke bar and island units tailored to your space, your team, and how the area will be used.
From compact coffee stations to large, multifunctional islands, we design to any size, shape, or configuration, including:
* Straight, curved, or fully bespoke island forms
* Multi-level surfaces for preparation, serving, and seating
* Integrated seating areas and overhangs
​
Each design is carefully considered to maximise usability, flow, and visual impact.
Materials to Match Your Interior
Our extensive manufacturing capabilities allow us to produce Bespoke Teapoints, workplace bars and islands in a wide range of finishes, ensuring they align perfectly with your overall interior scheme. This is particularly popular when and off the shelf kitchen doesn't offer the exact door finish you need:
* High-pressure laminates (HPL) for durability and ease of maintenance
* Solid surface materials for seamless, hygienic worktops
* Real wood veneers for warmth and character
* Stone, marble, or quartz for a premium feel
* Spray-painted finishes for a clean, contemporary look
We often combine materials to create contrast and define different functional areas within the unit.
Integrated Features & Practical Detailing
Workplace bars and islands need to do more than look good—they must perform efficiently day to day. We design in functionality from the outset, including:
* Space for your Integrated sinks and appliances
* Power and data points
* Cable management and service routing
* Storage solutions for consumables and equipment
* Durable surfaces suited to high-use environments
Lighting can also be incorporated to enhance the design, from subtle feature lighting to practical task illumination.
Built for Everyday Use
These spaces are among the most frequently used areas within a workplace, so durability and build quality are essential. Every unit is manufactured in our UK facility using robust construction methods and high-quality materials, ensuring long-term performance in busy environments.
A Social Focal Point for the Modern Workplace
A well-designed bar, island unit or Teapot becomes more than just a functional feature—it becomes a destination within the workplace. A place for conversation, connection, and a quick break away from the desk.
By combining thoughtful design, material expertise, and precise manufacturing, Clarke Rendall delivers bespoke solutions that enhance both the look and the culture of your workspace.
