An Inclusive, Sustainable, and Collaborative Workspace
Inclusive design is one of the most important factors to a collaborative office. After 12 years in the same location, with employees split across two floors, JLL Birmingham wanted to bring the team together in a single space and encourage collaboration.
JLL approached Tetris DB with the aim of designing and fitting their new Midland regional office, selecting the MEPC’s development at One Centenary Way, a building which aligned with JLL’s sustainability requirements. I was assigned to photograph and capture the dynamic design, with its welcoming and inspirational workspace.
The new JLL Birmingham office spans approximately 14,000 sq ft and accommodates 80 workstations with 190 alternative work settings. Collaboration spaces seamlessly blend with workspaces, offering a variety of working environments and promoting choice and flexibility. Social spaces are strategically placed around central areas such as the tea point, agora, and wellbeing and games areas.
The result is a workplace that reflects JLL’s identity, maximises efficiency and fosters collaboration among employees. By prioritising inclusivity, sustainability, and employee well-being, Tetris has created a functional and inspiring workspace that showcases JLL’s commitment to creating a positive work environment.
The vision for the workplace was to attract and retain top talent by showcasing JLL’s commitment to diversity, inclusion, and wellbeing. All client-centric and adaptable spaces were carefully planned on a single floor, with sustainability as a core principle.
