BCO Bitesize Tours: Arup, One Centenary Way

An important part of Arup’s office move was to provide every impacted employee within the firm an opportunity to influence the new fit-out and ensure it accommodated their needs. This approach was framed around supporting neurodiversity, wellbeing, and inclusivity in the workplace. Working alongside architecture specialist HOK and fit-out-specialist Overbury, employees were engaged in the layout and designs of the new office across all aspects of the design fit out; from how they envisaged using the spaces, through to finishes, which were selected for low carbon footprints.

The result is a workplace that targets WELL Platinum certification, featuring a variety of work and collaboration settings alongside a large public space on the ground floor for community outreach and hotdesking and meeting settings for partners and collaborators.

The lunchtime tour will provide the opportunity to hear from those involved in the design and development of Arup’s new office, as well as networking with other members.
