ADAPTATIVE REUSE FOR WORKPLACE

Our approach to re-life our workplace is a true reflection of both our Carbon Neutral commitments, embracing the ethos that ‘the greenest building is the one that is already built’. This combined with adopting a remote working model allows our London based workforce to housed comfortably in a building designed only for half of the required capacity. Both are key factors in our negligible carbon footprint and in turn our year on year carbon reduction in line with our SBTi* commitments.

*Science Based Targets  

In re-designing our offices we challenged the traditional capacity model in favour of a humanising approach to our workplace, which in turn has resulted in quantifiable improvements to both staff well-being, and in turn productivity alike. The adoption of a 100% hot-desk approach to the workplace has been instrumental in nurturing a shared and truly democratic environment in which we all work.

The inclusion and emphasis on social spaces has led to greater social engagement and communication between all staff, particularly between individual teams, proving that space given to the less tangible activities reaps great benefit to an organisation.

Key to improving health and well-being is the conscious drive towards encouraging movement and interaction between task based activity areas, which provide spaces for our identified 4 key workplace activities of privacy, breakout, focus and collaboration. Acoustically areas are planned to group or separate both calm and vibrant activities.
