Innovative fit-out for Tait Communications featuring collaborative workspaces, public lounge, and custom furniture inspired by local geology, enhancing both employee engagement and public interaction in a 3000 sqm commercial environment.

Tait Communications unique workplace environment incorporates a public lounge, café and event facility as an extension to private workspaces to facilitate collaboration and public engagement.

Within their private work space, Engineering and administration staff were organised loosely into ‘activity centres’ with custom and proprietary joinery for personal and team work. Adjacent ‘collaborative pods’ allowed more flexible modes of presenting and critiquing work.

An open array of ‘seating landscapes’ within the entrance atrium caters to public exchange.  Our custom designed collaborative couches and complementary ottomans and side tables are a comfortable solution for informal small groups. Offering scalability through recombination for larger more organised events. These patterns were inspired by local volcanic geology of Banks Peninsula and the latent seating options within Scoria rock along the shore line.
