Head office interior

A workplace planned around how the teams move and work together, with the industrial character of the building softened rather than removed.

How the project was decided

  1. Reception with charcoal fluted wall panelling, two curved lounge chairs and a pendant light

    01

    Softening the building

    A workplace planned around how the teams move and work together, with the industrial character of the building softened rather than removed. Charcoal timber panelling, fluted glazing, warm timber, natural stone and restrained brass set the material identity, and curved forms through the entry make the arrival less abrupt.

  2. Glazed offices along the workplace edge, with planting in the foreground

    02

    Light and amenity on both levels

    The ground floor supports both client interaction and day to day team use, with workstations and internal offices positioned to make the most of natural light. Tea points, breakout areas and shared kitchens are spread across both levels, so staff on either floor have them close by.

Materials and details
