MACQUARIE PLACE

workplace design

The project centered on reimagining the workplace for a Sydney-based global investment firm, transforming it into an environment that reflects both sophistication and clarity. The design elevates the experience through refined detailing and considered spatial planning, with a strong emphasis on creating an intuitive and engaging user experience for employees and visitors alike.

Taking inspiration from the beautiful Sydney Harbor we pictured a soft, harmonious and balanced feel while incorporating the surrounding landscape.

Overall our design employed a neutral palette of light and airy tones with elements of blues and brass throughout.

The boardroom was designed with a strong emphasis on discretion and functionality. Privacy was carefully addressed through integrated sound transmission solutions, motorized privacy shades, and bespoke acoustic applications. The space was further enhanced to accommodate larger town hall gatherings, with increased seating capacity, discreet storage for audiovisual equipment, and a concealed door providing seamless access to the adjacent kitchen.

The back-of-house spaces were reimagined as open, flexible environments that support a variety of work styles. The kitchen was opened and extended to incorporate a breakout area with banquette seating, creating a setting that comfortably accommodates informal work, collaboration, and hosting industry peers. The design encourages meaningful employee interaction while introducing a sense of ease, comfort, and calm throughout the space.
