Advisory
STF collaborated with the Industrial Clusters Program on the design and space layout of their Riyadh headquarters. STF conducted extensive research into best practices and efficient methodologies of interior spacing, to boost productivity and workflow efficiency. STF strategically assembled the various departments into the most logical placement across the 4 floors building to ensure an intuitive passageway for employees and visitors.
Spaces
Inspired by novel and innovative work environments, STF designed the Industrial Clusters Program latest headquarters. After analyzing the nuances of global office spaces such as AirBnB in California and PWC in Sweden, STF created a layout that would boost team morale, interactivity and productivity. STF assessed, researched and curated a wayfinding flow that applies best to the various functions of the office departments. Following diligent research and benchmarking, our team developed out of the box creative zoning methods, that enhance the office experience through departmental specific wayfinding systems, interior design and landscaping guidelines.
