Like life, work is fluid. Businesses have an urgent need to build culture and support the bottom line, while employees care about flexibility and wellness. These shifts are an opportunity to imagine a more purpose-driven, healthy and productive office. We call this "Live Well, Work Well,” our design approach focused on the performance of companies and the happiness of their people.

Office space that fosters connection and encourages access to leadership helps drive performance, mentorship and retention. It also strengthens culture and brings a company’s mission and values to life. “Live Well, Work Well” supports health and performance at four levels: the overall health of individual employees, the operational success of teams, the bottom line of the company and the prosperity of its community.

Design Perspectives for Corporate Office

Companies have an opportunity to create experiences that people can only find at the office. The headquarters for Hana Bank in Korea includes a meandering garden pathway that spans the entire height of the building, providing places to gather, think, work and exercise. It's also open to the public.
