The global pharmaceutical company faced the challenge of inviting its employees back to the office and cultivating a culture of collaboration and knowledge sharing. With remote work becoming the norm, there was a need to create an environment that would entice employees to return to the office and provide spaces where they could engage in productive and informal interactions.
The Goal
The goal of the project was to design and implement a collaborative and inviting social space within the client’s office in Brussels. This space would serve as a hub for employees to relax, socialise, and engage in casual conversations, ultimately fostering a sense of community and encouraging collaborative working and knowledge sharing.
