New marketing suite generates homes enquiries

Edited by the Buildingtalk editorial team Oct 31, 2007

So striking is the new Mikano sales suite, delivered to Acorn Property Group's site in Newquay, Cornwall, that local residents flocked to see it the moment it 'landed'.

A new style of marketing suite has generated hundreds of sales enquiries for an apartment scheme just days after its delivery.

The Mikano sales suite is the first of its kind and was commissioned by the Acorn Property Group to help promote its GBP100 million worth of property being built in Cornwall, starting with the Zinc development of 52 apartments in the popular Fistral Beach area.

Mikano has now been inundated with enquiries for similar structures in the area.

Mikano uses the very latest techniques in modular off-site construction to create design-led, stunning structures.

It offers a wide range of marketing suite design to meet developer's budgets.

Paul Bird of Mikano said: "Acorn's marketing suite was transported all the way from Newcastle, where it was built, and from the moment it set off on its journey it caused a stir".

"Acorn approached us to design a marketing suite that oozed the same design-led quality as their brand and apartments".

"They saw the marketing suite as an integral part of their marketing activity".

"An ordinary temporary building just wouldn't have them same impact in reflecting their values and creative approach".

"The suite also uses sustainable materials and took just 12 weeks from design to installation".

"Stephen Parkinson of the Acorn Property Group added: "We needed a space that would help to sell the apartments and be considered a wonderful design, as iconic as Zinc itself.

It's even better than we'd imagined and has had a massive impact on our marketing activity.

He added: "This suite will be used for all Acorn's planned developments and can be moved time and time again with ease so is well worth the investment".

Mikano specialises in the design and manufacture of state-of-the-art marketing suites.

Prices for Mikano suites start at £1000 per sq m.
