Two days at the BCO Annual Conference in Edinburgh, spent inside buildings never meant to be offices: a Nightingale hospital reborn as a university, Georgian townhouses turned modern workspace, and a domed Victorian banking hall. Here is what the city taught us about heritage and the workplace.

A full day at CDW 2026, the festival's 15th edition, across more than 450 brands. Four finds for our project work: a new modular workspace system from Benchmark, acoustic panels from Ecousta, ceramic and oak lighting from Studio Haran, and the Poet's Corner Collection from Spark & Bell.
