Client & brief
Shaviram is a private equity investment group established in 2013, who have transformed both residential and commercial investment properties into state-of-the-art developments.
Close to the River Thames and with easy links to the capital, Egham is an ideal location for commuters. The client identified this, wishing to offer a stylish collection of apartments for rent. After identifying and securing the perfect building in the optimal location, the client needed a turnkey contractor to complete a full strip-out, reconfiguration and refurbishment.
"We found our perfect partner in DRG Interior & Building Solutions. They were able to manage every aspect of our project seamlessly, ensuring that we didn’t have to worry about anything but what was most important: creating beautiful homes for people who deserve them."

The DRG solution
Having worked closely with the client on previous commercial residential projects, DRG was delighted to support the Shaviram Group in their new venture. The project kicked off with a full strip-out, including removal of all heavy machinery from the roof space, creating an entire new floor within the existing structure. The reception area was updated and the floor in-filled.
The fit-out began with the installation of internal partitioning and doors, creating 33 one-bedroom and 21 two-bedroom apartments across three floors. All apartments were individually finished, and featured spacious, open plan living spaces and modern appliances, with carefully chosen fixtures.
