GO! // Workspace Design
GO! connect brands with agencies in their growing network. With a recent move into the Northspring building in Manchester city centre, the team came to NC to create a workspace which represented them as a business, their ethos and showcased this to their clients.
Taking cues from hospitality settings and the building in which they occupy, the scheme was conscious of being both client facing and inspiring for employees. Creating real transformation which boosted performance and user experience.
Brand inspired blues create a cocooning environment and elements of ambient lighting, soft upholstery and luxurious brass detail give the overall feeling of a hospitality setting, rather than a commercial office.
As you enter the office, a lounge style seating area greets guests, an instant cue to feel at ease. A large scale storage unit conceals unsightly elements, reducing clutter and providing a practical solution for stationary and personal belongings. Planting softens the desk spaces, and defines a walkway towards the meeting rooms and collaboration areas.
The motive of the letter ‘O’ from the brand is evident in the space in subtle and nuanced iterations. ‘GO!’ brand green overlays through planting, creating a real impact and capturing the transformative and pioneering energy of the organisation.
