About the Project

At Lothian Street, our new location embodies our preference for subtle expression and grace. Our goal was to design a space that reflects our core principles while considering our surroundings. We foster creativity and collaboration by incorporating traditional workplace elements with a thoughtful connection to the environment. Despite a limited budget, we maximized existing resources, including the kitchen sink. Our focus was on enhancing staff well-being and creating a strong connection between people and the physical space. Bringing our team back to the office was important after a period of remote work.
