THE CHALLENGE

The challenge

The way we work is changing. At Arcadis, we are shifting the emphasis from ‘where’ to ‘how’, and in doing so needed a more modern, functional workplace that could flex and adapt to our evolving needs. When it came to the future of our workplace, we needed to create an environment that works for everyone. For us, this means providing a more inclusive experience; enhancing wellbeing; improving collaboration and innovation; and driving a culture of trust, respect and ownership. Arcadis has long been at the forefront of digitisation in the property sector, looking at ways to use technology and data to improve efficiencies, sustainability and the operation of buildings of all types. The way in which we approach our own office space is no different.

The solution

Our new London office at 80 Fenchurch Street (80Fen) has been designed as an environment for collaboration, creating social connections, and engaging with our clients.

We began with a series of surveys and workshops to understand the physical and digital needs of our people. From how often people wanted to come into the office, to how they would use the space once they were there, our user-experience design processes and tools helped to define the ideal employee experience, together with the intelligent building technologies that would facilitate it.

The impact

As one of only a handful of occupiers to sign a major lease in the City of London during COVID-19, we are committed to supporting business recovery and recognise that physical office space has an important part to play, particularly when it comes to collaboration, building social connections, and better engaging with our clients. However, it’s a different type of space that reflects the changing nature of the workday and our workforce.


In this respect, 80Fen is the embodiment of our strategy and ways of working, in which choice and flexibility are key. It isn’t just a one-time fit-out, it’s a step change in how we use and curate space. By putting sustainability and digital leadership at the heart of 80Fen’s design we can be adaptable to our clients’, colleagues’ and business needs.
