The building was designed as an institutional office with a functional centre core containing key circulation & main amenities. The core is surrounded by an open plan office to three sides and a triple height reception to the main entrance. The scale of the reception assists in enhancing the impact of entering the building. It provided an adaptable canvas with maximum flexibility which Penson used to incorporate THG’s vision.

All floors were fitted out with Penson’s futuristic concept, these include public amenity spaces, ancillary restaurant, meeting rooms and conference areas at ground floor. The upper floors are used for open plan office space which accommodates small cafés to supplement the bigger restaurant, meetings rooms and conference areas. On level 3 an executive suite has been designed which houses a board room and other exec areas.

The intention of this project was to refresh areas of the building and incorporate THG branding. The building was to reflect the scale and dominance of the THG Brand within various markets. 

The project was broken down into Six specific areas and then broken down further to expand what is required in these areas. 

The six areas are as follows. 

  • Ground Floor Reception 
  • Ground Floor Canteen 
  • Circulation Cores (GF, L1, L2, L3) 
  • Cafe Areas (GF, L1, L2, L3)
  • Award wall (L3) 
  • Boardroom (L3)

The key objectives of this project were to refresh the above areas incorporating the THG Branding giving the reception and other areas while minimising disruption to the THG Business.
