  • YOU WANT A DESIGN THAT MAXIMIZES EFFICIENCY.  

    We demand it. You want a space that has longevity. We insist on it. 
    So we don’t respond to trends; we respond to needs. Needs – from comfort to vigour – will always outlast trends.

  • YOU CAN EASILY SPEND 35% OF THE TIME YOU'RE AWAKE AT WORK. 

    The workplace better feel good. And it shouldn’t feel like work. Our design works hard so you won’t feel like that’s what you’re doing.

  • PEOPLE TALK ABOUT THE AWARDS WE'VE WON.

    But what you should know is that it isn’t awards that excite us. It’s that our design changes clients lives. It’s about changing their relationship with their surroundings. You’ll see. 

GC Workplace Co-Working Project

GC

WORKPLACE

One of the challenges in design is being able to harness and then communicate a physical manifestation of some intangible ideals. Comfort. Flow. Activity. Calm. Vitality. It’s what makes these sorts of projects so valuable.

We  were lucky enough to work with Public Services and Procurement Canada on a large scale functional program called GC Workplace. It’s an incredible initiative aiming to provide more flexibility with where and how staff work. The enterprise provides unassigned work environments for Federal Government workers.
Imagine a host of drop-in office locations close to employees’ homes that facilitate telework.
Of course, all the principles
can be applied to non-government functionality, too.
True to the requirements of modern work, there are allocated spaces for both heads-down and collaborative group work. The conceptual design options that burst forth were manifested in renderings we developed using Revit (highly dextrous building information modelling software) that integrated biophilic design, exposed ceilings and a strategic use of colour blocking.
We were ecstatic with the results - a vibrant, dynamic office ecosystem.
