Renewable energy company OVO wanted to consolidate their Scotland team and bring colleagues back together in a centrally located hub at Glasgow’s Cadworks building, as part of a rationalisation of their office estate to three core UK sites. Fostering teamwork and a positive work culture whilst supporting their flexible working policy was therefore key. To promote interaction and wellbeing, MLA designed a light, flexible and fun workplace, incorporating a bold set of connecting staircases between four floors to encourage movement and interaction. The space provides a greater choice of work settings for colleagues and clients, creating a ‘magnet workspace’ with a relaxed, inviting home- from-home atmosphere.
