Wotif were interested in a new head office that considered staff interaction as part of creating a vibrant workspace.

The concept of a town square and laneways were used as a planning idea and zones of engagement.

The town square acts as reception, an open meeting space, lunch room and event space.

Communal facilities such as photocopiers, notice boards, water coolers, toilets and filing are all accessed via the laneways.

Everyday activities draw staff into the laneways where random interactions take place.

The existing structure was stripped back to the concrete structure. The new work complements the raw aesthetic.
