Diverse zones allow employees to shift from heads-down work to group sessions with ease. An area for guests, which contains a plant-filled bookshelf, is reminiscent of a living room. The social sector at the heart of the workplace includes a casual dining section and bar. Glass blocks let sunlight filter in and complement the tile backsplash. There's even a room dedicated to deep relaxation, complete with cosmic motifs and a recliner.

"There was barely any storage, the tiny fridge was inconveniently low, and the overhead cupboards blocked a lot of light," Allan says. "The layout didn't make good use of the space, and the dark ceiling just made it feel more closed-in. It felt like a room that could work really well with the right updates. It just needed a complete rethink."
