The Furniture Practice worked alongside the project team at AstraZeneca UK and designers at Ekho Studio to craft a high-quality furniture package that promotes dynamic working through a variety of different settings, from soft seating areas, flexible meeting rooms and private booths, to a welcoming reception, flexible restaurant space and roof terrace.
Every piece of furniture was trialled and tested before orders were placed, so the commitment to supreme functionality with beautiful aesthetics was delivered upon.
