Sleeper Magazine
Beautiful design is at the forefront of Sleeper Magazine’s publication, so they needed an office interior that was equally inspiring. Sleeper Magazine called on creative design studio NoChintz to create the workspace they were after, which included the addition of a new HydroTap.

By assessing how the office works day-to-day, NoChintz’s team was able to build a co-working concept to encourage conversation with zoned areas, flexible working solutions and comfortable breakout spaces. A new light, bright and contemporary kitchen area was created, making the most of the office’s open plan design and creating an important hub for staff.
The brief
For NoChintz, the HydroTap was the obvious choice. Abigail Carpe, interior designer says: “We specify HydroTaps all the time. In fact, we have one in our office and couldn’t live without it. Our office acts as a showroom and clients will come in and want what we have because they trust the products that we trust. In the end, you’re buying into a brand and we will only specify the best. Zip Water is a reputable brand and we know the products are high quality. Most of the offices we fit out are of a high spec and demand this level of performance.”
A team of expert Zip engineers across the UK offer unrivalled aftercare and support, keeping offices like Sleeper Magazine’s fuelled. Abigail adds: “One of the main reasons we choose Zip Water over other brands is the great service and maintenance packages. Our HydroTap is integral to the office running smoothly, so the ability to get it serviced regularly is a huge bonus.”
“We moved into the newly refurbished office earlier this year and the HydroTap was an instant hit. It’s sleek, clean and incredibly convenient compared to a kettle – we don’t have to queue for drinks anymore, so we can get on with more important things! Our previous kitchen used to be full of people hovering around waiting for the kettle.”
The solution
A Zip HydroTap Classic was chosen to keep the Sleeper team powered up with filtered boiling water for tea and coffee, and filtered chilled and sparkling water. Becky Archacki, commercial director at Sleeper Magazine, explains how the HydroTap has benefited the team and the business as a whole.
The HydroTap has also had a positive impact when it comes to hydration and wellbeing. “I’m definitely drinking more, as are other people in the office, which feels great. The instant filtered water also makes it easy to entertain clients that come in. The sparkling water is especially popular– in fact, people from other floors even come and use it!”
"As well as saving time, it means we don't have to haul big plastic bottles around for the water cooler, which was a really annoying job. Plus, we don't have the problem with plastic cups anymore, we use reusable water bottles or glasses, so we're much greener as an office."
