Summary
Pervasive Wi-Fi and technology-enriched spaces allow users the freedom and choice to work how and where they want. From quiet zones to meeting spaces, users can connect with familiar and easy to use technology, bringing the focus back to human collaboration.
Of the spaces on offer, the most impressive is the Greenhouse. With soundscapes and stunning visuals across digital signage, the Greenhouse uses cutting-edge technology to take users on a journey, spark innovation and disrupt conventional thinking.
The focus on staff wellbeing earned Deloitte London’s first WELL rating. It’s also highly efficient. Smart technology, automation and sensors connected to a robust network all contribute to Deloitte’s sustainability efforts and a BREAM rating of 95%. The complex vision required close collaboration between the technology teams and architects to ensure decisions matched Deloitte’s eco-friendly targets.
Achieving this complex vision required close collaboration between PTS, the Client and the architects to find the optimum balance between functionality, wellbeing, technology innovation and design. In 2019, the British Council for Offices recognised the project’s success, awarding Deloitte with the National Award for Workplace Fit-Out project of the year.
