e are Better Together is the overarching philosophy
that MotoVantage asked Paragon Interiors, office
design specialists, to bring to life in their new offices in
Stonemill Office Park, Cresta. MotoVantage is a motor insurance
company that specialises in offering a full range of motor value
added products such as service plans, maintenance plans, scratch
and dent cover and financial cover for vehicles.
MotoVantage were initially in three buildings in Sunninghill,
two in Vereeniging and one in Cape Town and found the set-up
impractical and prohibitive to creating management visibility and
encouraging cross-departmental interaction. Accessibility to the
Sunninghill precinct from a travel and traffic point of view was
sub-optimal, particularly once the Vereeniging office relocated to
78
Johannesburg. The existing office also did not allow for growth
nor the facilities to support open plan and encourage team
interaction and togetherness.
Concept
Paragon Interiors worked closely with the MotoVantage
executive team and executive project lead Antwanette
Bester, to execute a brief to create a functional, inspirational
work environment that caters for the different department’s
requirements within the organisation. The design concept
incorporates a South African road trip to highlight key areas and
connect department destinations by way of a journey through
the back of house workspace. There is a main circulation route
