Ipswich Town Football Club Reception
Layrd delivered a full turnkey transformation of Ipswich Town Football Club’s main reception in just six weeks. What was once a tired, cluttered entrance with blue carpet and dated wood has become a bright, confident welcome point that reflects the club’s modern ambitions.

The space was reconfigured to improve flow and function, with a clear layout that separates the reception desk, a relaxed waiting area, and a circulation path.
Bespoke timber wall panels mirror the stadium’s architectural lines, while oak tones, dark accents and copper details provide warmth and definition. Flooring materials help define each zone, bringing clarity and cohesion.


Natural planting plays a big role in lifting the space. With more daylight now entering the reception, greenery adds a sense of calm and vibrancy.
A layered lighting system offers five settings for different times of day or event use, shifting from bright and energising to soft and atmospheric.

Warm-toned oak meets rich copper LVT to create a subtle contrast that defines space through tone and texture.

Bespoke timber panelling echoes the architectural rhythm of the stands, bringing subtle texture and structure to the entrance of the Ipswich Town reception space.
At the centre is a custom-built reception desk with a fluted textured front, designed for comfort and visual impact.
A nearby tea point offers added hospitality with integrated storage and a drinks fridge. Every element, from layout to materials, was chosen to reflect Ipswich Town’s identity and create a memorable first impression.
