Mental Health is key to a fulfilling and peaceful life, Headway plays a key role in connecting you to a provider that works best for you. We help create an office setting that reflects those values while carving out spaces to enjoy and relax themselves.
We wanted to approach this office layout to prioritize individual and overall workplace well-being. Different sized breakout spaces serve a variety of functions that foster collaboration, and productivity. Considering that there are workflows for smaller groups or single staff members, we also designed relaxed environment away from the formal workstations.
Not only does this provide focused environments, it also develops spaces for taking short breaks to recharge mentally and carry on informal discussions. This change of scenery can boost creativity, reduce stress, and enhance problem-solving by encouraging spontaneous interaction and idea-sharing among colleagues outside of typical work day routines.
The lower floor features a sprawling lounge, a casually furnished conference room, a training room, the full sized kitchen and pantry, along with an ‘alley’ for phonebooths of various size.
The second floor has a massive stepped atrium for team wide meetings, a central breakout space with multiple seating arrangements, a ‘phone bank’ of small private booths, and amenities for many kinds rest and relaxation.
