Endava engaged with Amicus to create a workspace at 80 Clarence Street that would seamlessly blend elements of their European design heritage with distinctive Australiana influences. Collaborating closely with Endava’s local stakeholders in Sydney and Romania, we sought to deliver a workplace that reflected their global identity, while embracing the unique culture and environment of Australia.
Delivering a bespoke workplace for Endava required thoughtful integration of design, sustainability, and cultural sensitivity. Inspired by Australia’s rugged landscape, the interiors emphasised raw textures, earthy tones, and organic forms. Natural finishes such as timber, stone, and clay were complemented by biophilic design elements, echoing the indoor-outdoor lifestyle central to the Australian way of life. These details were carefully curated to evoke a sense of warmth, reflecting the geography and history of the land.
The meeting rooms were a standout feature, incorporating concepts achieved in close collaboration with local artists and stakeholders to ensure the designs were both respectful and meaningful. The space also embraced Endava’s branding, incorporating subtle graphics, feature colours, and bespoke lighting that tied the company’s global identity into this uniquely Australian context.
Sustainability was embedded throughout the project from retaining and recycling existing finishes to reusing loose furniture elements. This approach not only reduced waste but also enhanced the sense of continuity within the space. Strategic placement of acoustic solutions, lounge areas, and recreational zones further supported team bonding and productivity.
Thoughtful planning and close collaboration ensured that challenges were met with innovative solutions, achieving ambitious design objectives within the proposed timeline.
A key success of the project was its emphasis on sustainability, with a substantial reuse of existing furniture and finishes, complemented by the integration of timeless natural materials to create a space that is both environmentally conscious and enduring in design. The final workspace is not only functional and visually striking but also deeply rooted in a sense of place. The design fosters collaboration and connection, embodying Endava’s values and providing an inspiring environment for its dynamic team.
