澳洲KPMG安侯建業帕拉瑪塔辦公空間 KPMG Australia, Parramatta Workplace

The challenge was straightforward: to foster enthusiasm, unity, and a sense of community among the KPMG teams. How can we ignite their excitement for work and encourage greater collaboration?
The solution was clear-cut: craft a modern workspace that seamlessly blends productivity and recreation. Create an environment that offers freedom, adaptability, and a connected atmosphere for both the KPMG team members and their clients.

We collaborated closely with KPMG teams to gain insights into their requirements, their organic work styles, and the ideal environment for their success. Employing strategic analysis, we translated this information into a conceptual design and then expanded upon it by incorporating a cohesive palette.Our design concept revolves around the harmonious fusion of land, sea, and sky, seamlessly woven into our workspaces, client-facing zones, and the captivating outdoor terrace. Vibrant color schemes, indigenous graphics, an open, naturally illuminated interior, and technology connectivity have been seamlessly integrated into this captivating workplace.

The new KPMG Parramatta workplace has tried to push the boundaries of innovation. We have diligently worked with our project partners to pioneer new aesthetics with products never before seen at this scale in the Australian market. Our primary goal was to celebrate Parramatta’s rich tapestry, reflecting its diverse culture, indigenous heritage, and natural splendor. This celebration is eloquently expressed through the interpretation of land, sea, and sky that permeates the entire design, offering true connections to the KPMG occupants.

A highlight of our collaboration with product designers and engineers is the representation of the ‘sky’ in the form of a captivating ceiling design. This design element is deeply rooted in our connection to culture and the remarkable diversity of the Parramatta community. The concierge counter, a true sculptural masterpiece of bespoke craftsmanship, eloquently encapsulates the essence of the land with its smooth, natural contours, honoring the beauty found in nature’s imperfections.

The sea, depicted as a calm and fresh wall feature, presents a seamless interpretation of gentle ripples that beckon you to look beyond, inviting you to explore and discover what lies around the corner. Throughout the workplace, you’ll encounter the integration of Indigenous artworks, each a powerful reflection of the unique interpretation offered by the art students of Doonside Technology High School. These artworks serve as a constant reminder of the land’s original custodians and the beauty of Parramatta.

Every design project we undertake presents a distinct challenge, as it revolves around the individual needs of our clients, their team members, and their organization’s unique brand identity. Our primary aim was to craft a space that authentically resonated with the KPMG Parramatta teams, fostering a profound sense of belonging and connection to the place. The integration, collaboration, and coordination between many professionals, on the creation of multiple bespoke joinery pieces, wall features, ceiling features, lighting design, and graphics was challenging given the sheer volume of ‘bespoke’ that was designed within the workplace, to enable our vision to come to life.

Achieving this proved to be a multifaceted challenge. Through unwavering dedication and a meticulous focus on both the finer details and the overarching vision, we effectively conveyed our intentions to the client and our project partners, enabling us to bring this vision to life.

Sustainability is paramount in every project we undertake. When it came to the new KPMG Parramatta workplace, our commitment to sustainability led us to prioritize local sourcing and the selection of products that offer versatility, mobility, and long-lasting durability for potential future reuse across other KPMG locations. This was highly supported by KPMG, contributing to their sustainability goals. We are fortunate to collaborate with product suppliers who share our deep commitment to sustainability, ensuring that the products and materials we specify have a sustainable life cycle. Our design philosophy is rooted in addressing the present while considering the future, and we hold the belief that every action we take plays a crucial role in shaping a better future for our industry and our planet.

挑戰很簡單:培養畢馬威團隊的熱情、團結和社區意識。我們如何激發他們的工作熱情並鼓勵更多的合作?解決方案很明確:打造一個將生產力和娛樂無縫融合的現代化工作空間,為團隊成員和客戶創造一個自由、適應性強且充滿連結的氛圍。

我們與畢馬威團隊密切合作,深入了解他們的需求、工作模式以及成功願景,透過策略分析將這些洞見轉化為概念設計,並結合一個有凝聚力的調色方案進一步延展。設計中融入了充滿活力的色彩、本地化圖形、自然採光與技術連結,並將其無縫地整合到開放式室內空間、面向客戶的功能區以及迷人的室外露臺中。

畢馬威帕拉馬塔的新工作場所旨在突破創新界限。我們與專案合作夥伴孜孜不倦地協作,共同創造了一種澳洲市場上前所未見的美學表現,致力於展現帕拉馬塔的文化多樣性、原住民遺產及自然景觀。設計透過「陸地、海洋和天空」的詮釋來呈現這些特質,為使用者營造出深刻的文化與環境連結。

設計的亮點之一是「天空」的詮釋,以迷人的天花板設計形式展現出帕拉馬塔文化的精髓,並彰顯其多樣性。禮賓櫃檯則以流暢自然的線條概括了土地的特質,體現了自然不完美之美。牆面上的「海洋」元素透過柔和的漣漪圖案詮釋出平靜與清新的氛圍,邀請使用者探索工作場所中的每個角落。在空間中還融入了杜恩賽德科技高中藝術學生創作的原住民藝術品,這些作品不僅展現了當地的文化特色,還向土地的原住者致敬。

每個設計專案都面臨獨特的挑戰,這一次也不例外。我們的目標是打造一個與畢馬威帕拉馬塔團隊產生共鳴的空間,營造出深刻的歸屬感與聯繫感。在設計過程中,我們克服了多項技術和協作上的挑戰,例如客製化細木工、牆面與天花特徵的創作,以及多方團隊的協調與整合。這些努力讓願景逐步成為現實。

永續性是我們所有專案的核心。對於新的畢馬威帕拉馬塔工作場所,我們堅持本地採購,並優先選擇多功能、耐用且可重複使用的材料,以支持畢馬威的永續目標。我們與同樣重視永續發展的供應商合作,確保所選材料具備可持續生命週期。設計不僅著眼於當下,也考慮到未來的需求,我們深信,每一項選擇都能為行業和地球的未來帶來積極影響。
