FinTech HQ

The design ethos for the headquarters for this emerging technology giant was to create a space that would support community and connection. The design concept was based on the idea of ecosystems – self-supporting habitats dependent on the cooperation of many elements interacting and exchanging in order to sustain the success of the whole. Each of the seven floors in the building represented a unique habitat with linking elements running throughout the space to connect the environment in its entirety. The aesthetic influences were taken from residential settings, hospitality and cafes, along with material and color palettes derived from different natural environments to reinforce a healthful interior and feeling of community and belonging.
