THE PROJECT
PMG was engaged to design and construct JAS Australia’s new Sydney branch workspace & office. 

The project objectives included:

• Uniting the team on one floor, moving from a two-level, siloed workspace.
• Creating a workplace that attracts new staff.
• Designing an office that reflects the JAS brand.
• Developing a space to be proud of, matching the standards of other international JAS offices.
• Ensure security compliance with customs regulations.

DESIGN SOLUTIONS

• Unified Single Floor Office: Relocated all staff to one floor.
• Considered Workspace: Thoughtful space planning to meet the needs of different teams.
• Branding: The front of house area is heavily branded, while the back of house and breakout areas are more neutral. 
• Meeting Areas: A suite of meeting spaces supports a variety of team interactions and environments.
• Security Compliance: Installed new access doors and security measures in line with customs regulations.
• Breakout Area: Designed a large breakout space to foster team cohesion in a relaxed setting, with flexible seating for large or small group gatherings.
