The project also strengthens Cape Town’ s local economy by prioritising South African artisans, designers and manufacturers in furniture, finishes and artwork. This investment in local talent not only supports economic development but also enhances the authenticity of the workplace experience.
Beyond its physical design, the campus fosters a strong sense of community and inclusivity. More than just a workplace, it provides spaces for knowledge-sharing, cultural engagement and social interaction. Engagement with employees throughout the design process ensured that the campus truly reflects their needs. Dedicated user groups shaped key aspects of the workspace, from art selection to environmental
features, fostering a sense of ownership and belonging. Additionally, the site promotes education and awareness around sustainability. By integrating conservation efforts directly into the workplace- such as breeding facilities for endangered freshwater fish and green infrastructure- the campus inspires employees to engage with environmental issues in a tangible way. The project serves as a model for workplaces that don’ t just mitigate harm but actively contribute to the planet’ s well-being.
By merging sustainability with cultural and operational innovation, the Cape Town campus sets a new benchmark for workplace design- one that is not only environmentally responsible but also economically viable and socially enriching.
