ACCA

Reconfiguring space for hybrid working 

The brief was to not only enable their team to perform better at work, but deliver a new workspace concept that allowed more flexible space to accommodate the changing number of employees who do work onsite. 

We worked closely with the ACCA team to recognise and reconfigure under utilised space. The previous reception and meeting room area were remodelled to allow for the install of a new staff pantry area and a number of ‘touch down’ meeting rooms that feature eye-level VC equipment which allows remote employees to maintain eye contact with in-office staff. 

A hybrid workforce needs space that can flex with the variable number of staff and tasks that need to be accommodated for. Distributed between elements of traditional office space, we integrated furniture and partitioning solutions that can be easily reconfigured to support focussed work, collaboration, or both based on individual team needs. These elements not only help to accelerate innovation through better collaboration, but also mean the ACCA team can ensure their real estate is always optimised. 

Architectural finishes, custom joinery, unique light fittings and artwork all come together to add a modern flair to the space, embracing the ACCA branding and culture.

Intimate spaces for heads down work

In recognising that effective collaboration happens when there is an ebb and flow of people coming together to work as a team and then moving apart to focus on individually assigned tasks, collaboration spaces were offset with a number of focus spaces. These smaller spaces provide adequate privacy within the office to ensure employees don’t feel they have to work at home to get focus work done.
