The big idea

Diageo, a global leader in beverages, sought to rejuvenate its Onyx Building office in Glasgow, with a vision of creating an innovative, vibrant, and collaborative workspace that seamlessly blended biophilic elements with the company’s distinct brand identity. To achieve this ambitious goal, Diageo appointed Claremont.

Nailing the brief

The primary objective was to infuse the office space with biophilic design elements, enhancing employees’ well-being, productivity, and connection with nature. The design was to align seamlessly with Diageo’s brand identity, ensuring a consistent and authentic representation of the company’s values and culture. One of the key success criteria was delivering the project within the agreed-upon budget and the allocated timeline.

Claremont’s design team worked closely with Diageo’s stakeholders to develop a comprehensive plan that would fulfil the project’s goals. The design incorporated a wide range of biophilic elements, including living green walls, natural wood textures, indoor water features, and ample natural lighting. These elements were meticulously integrated into various aspects of the office, from the reception area to breakout spaces and meeting rooms.

The final result

The project was delivered on time and within the allocated budget, exceeding Diageo’s expectations. The newly transformed office space not only achieved its aesthetic goals but also demonstrated tangible benefits in terms of employee collaboration and well-being.

Diageo’s employees now enjoy an environment that fosters collaboration, innovation, and overall well-being. The carefully designed open-plan layout encourages spontaneous interactions, while dedicated collaborative spaces cater to team meetings and brainstorming sessions. The integration of biophilic elements has led to improved air quality, reduced stress levels, and increased focus among employees.

The office transformation perfectly encapsulated the company’s brand identity, providing a unique and inspiring workspace that reflects their values. The biophilic elements not only aligned with Diageo’s commitment to sustainability but also enhanced the overall ambiance of the office
