Consolidating several businesses into one purposefully designed environment.
Futurespace worked with a leading Agriscience organisation after its recently amalgamation, consolidating several businesses into one purposefully designed environment. Through a series of workshops and interviews, Futurespace distilled three key design principals that formed the groundwork for the design of their bespoke workspace;
1. Brand; uploading upholding the company heritage whilst embracing the future
2. Connection; creating one team experience
3. Choice; providing flexibility to support all business functions
The new space is designed to support interaction. The built environment is contained to the core of the building, to allowing everyone in the organisation access to best skylines views, and the open work environment maximises the opportunity for ad-hoc interactions.
Drawing on the business’s strong connection to agriculture and an affinity with the land, natural and authentic materials and finishes are brought into the environment. Materiality is central to activate the brand and culture; wWarm timbers play against, a backdrop of pastel hues and natural greenery, creatinge an environment that is visually stimulating. Organic forms are deployed in the open workspace planting wrapped to base columns, curved furniture forms, 120-degree workstations and subtle geometry to workstation screens to encourage genuine connection and interaction. Overall, this environment promotes connection, fosters new relationships while remaining true to its heritage.
