The Challenge
To consolidate 1,800 staff from 16 existing premises into one location, offering improved productivity, energy usage and property management.
The Story
Three main office areas are housed within the building, each with a depth of 15 meters, separated by service zones across six floors on either side of a central atrium. These areas are designed to be easily divided into two separate buildings, if needed. The transition from traditional individual offices to a fully open-plan work environment was made smoother by incorporating distinct zones based on a neighbourhood concept.
The Outcome
Included in the accommodation are open-plan offices, meeting rooms, a restaurant, a café, training rooms, an NGX presentation area, retail spaces, and a telephone exchange. The building is aligned along an east-west axis to ensure even daylight distribution and reduce solar heat gain.
