OVERVIEW
The new HQ was envisaged as a physical embodiment of OSRL’s brand and values, uniquely designed to enhance their workflow and moments of human connection.
The space was designed to showcase the organisation’s expertise and operational readiness (teams could be deployed around the world at a moment’s notice), by maintaining awareness and visual connectivity between warehousing and office spaces.
Through our initial engagement workshops, we defined the experience imperatives to ensure we captured the unique requirements for three distinct ‘states’ – Preparedness, Readiness, Response.
The final scheme ensures operational adjacencies flow whilst creating purposeful spaces for each team, all unified through the use of an ocean-blue palette that represents the restorative nature of their work, with a discordant orange palette that punctuates the scheme and represents the large-scale industrial nature of the team’s work.
“The team really embodies a ‘next generation’ approach, characterised by profound insight, intelligence and unparalleled creativity. With a penchant for thinking differently, they excel in crafting and delivering inspirational spaces even within the tightest constraints.”
