Estate agents Zenko Properties, digital marketing agency Perfect Storm and recruitment, training and coaching services provider Back2Work have all successfully relocated to Graphical House, an iconic creative workspace in the heart of Leeds.
The property was brought to market at the beginning of the year by strategic property advisors, Fox Lloyd Jones and Carter Towler and spans over 7,000 sq. ft. in total, offering high quality offices over four floors.
Located in The Calls district of Leeds, the building has undergone a significant refurbishment to offer some of the city’s best creative space. Graphical House is now largely known for its distinctive contemporary artwork on the building’s exterior – a project completed by Bristol-based artist Mr Penfold as part of the In Good Company project, commissioned by King & Co.
Zenko Properties, founded in 2015 by managing director Tobias Duczenko, has expanded its presence with a new branch on the ground floor of Graphical House. The 1,215 sq. ft space, secured on a 6-year lease, marks the company’s second Yorkshire location adding to its successful branch in Silsden.
The second floor is occupied by one of the UK’s most progressive digital marketing agencies, Perfect Storm. The agency recently announced a record £3m turnover for the 2023/24 financial year and has acquired one of the larger suites at 2,100 sq. ft on a 5 year lease.
Back2Work now occupy 1,720 sq. ft at third level, on a 3 year lease. With its focus on workforce development and skills training, Back2Work plays a crucial role in supporting the local economy and community.
Nick Salkeld, director at Fox Lloyd Jones, said: “Graphical House is an iconic landmark in the centre of Leeds and a unique creative environment, with the high levels of interest it has received paying testament to its vast appeal. The businesses that now make it their home are great examples of the diverse and innovative enterprises we aimed to attract. We’re just one suite away from filling the building with an impressive lineup of established businesses, and it’s not hard to see why it is so popular.”
The first floor suite is the last available space at Graphical House. It comprises 2,120 sq. ft of creative workspace benefiting from existing fit-out in the form of high-quality meeting rooms and a fitted kitchen.
Clem McDowell, director at Carter Towler, said: “Its location is ideal for travel with rail, bus and motorway links close by and the presence of all three businesses within Graphical House creating a dynamic and collaborative environment that promotes growth and innovation. Being situated in the heart of The Calls district, it is also surrounded by an abundance of local amenities which just adds to the many reasons so many businesses are looking to call this area of Leeds their home.”
