Manchester’s new home for creative enterprise

Faris Mousa, director at Bluefig Investments, said: “We are very excited to launch Calico, it’s a real gem, a much more authentic workplace in what is considered to be a more traditional and commercial area of the city, so it really stands out.

“Our new reception desk proved to be a real talking point at the launch, and I’m not surprised, it was built by robots using 3D printing techniques and it’s a work of art! Like the building, which in the 18th Century was a printing company for the growing textile trade in Manchester, it’s inspired by the past but completely state-of-the-art.”
