THE PROJECT
- Growthpoint engaged PMG to design and build two speculative suites aimed at enhancing the marketability and functionality of Level 6 and Level 8, 307 Queen Street. The objective was to create high-end, flexible workspaces that appeal to potential tenants and meet modern workspace standards.
- Level 6:
- Design a high-end speculative suite.
- Incorporate flexible workspace options.
- Develop an attractive front-of-house (FOH) waiting area with potential for a future reception desk.
- Level 8:
- Improve the layout and refurbish existing space.
- Create a larger kitchen and breakout area.
- Ensure an open connection between FOH and back-of-house (BOH).
DESIGN SOLUTIONS
PMG implemented a range of design solutions to transform Level 6 into a high-end speculative suite, focusing on creating a welcoming and flexible workspace:
- Meeting Room Accessibility: Meeting rooms were designed to be easily accessible from the FOH waiting area, enhancing convenience for both tenants and visitors.
- Breakout Space Visibility: Custom joinery and a planter box were strategically placed to be visible through the arrivals corridor, connecting the FOH and BOH spaces visually and functionally.
- Creative Layout: The layout was crafted to allow for a potential third office in the BOH area, providing flexibility for future tenant needs.
- Special Features:
- Portal joinery outside the 6-person meeting room.
- Tiled part-height wall with a bench seat.
- Tiling on columns to add texture and visual interest.
- Custom planter box and island table for an enhanced breakout area.
For Level 8, PMG focused on creating a modern, functional, and marketable office space:
- Optimised FOH and Meeting Spaces: A smaller waiting area was designed to allow for an additional small FOH meeting room, accommodating a larger kitchen/breakout area suited to the tenancy size.
- Boardroom Relocation: The boardroom was relocated to the FOH area, improving accessibility and functionality.
- Resource Efficiency: Existing furniture, utilities, and kitchen joinery in good condition were reused. New finishes were selected to create a cohesive, monochromatic aesthetic.
- Special Features: Two-tone paint for a sophisticated look. Feature film detail and arches on part-height glass walls. Collaborative two-tone paint is mirrored by a feature carpet inlay, adding a dynamic visual element to the space.
RESULTS
With thoughtful design and strategic planning, PMG successfully delivered two speculative suites for Growthpoint that meet the modern demands of flexible and high-end office spaces. The bespoke features and optimised layouts not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also ensure functional efficiency, making the spaces attractive and marketable to potential tenants.
