A. The brief was to create a collaborative, innovative and creative meeting and working environment connecting NAB customers to its community and people.
The Village connects NAB to its community, complementing the other offerings within the NAB’s buildings along Bourke Street, and facilitating the NAB ethos of ‘helping people achieve their goals and realise their potential’.
The centre provides a destination for users and NAB customers to meet, collaborate, share ideas and connect in a space that is relaxed and informal.’
We wanted to have fun with the design of these spaces, encouraging group collaboration and creativity for NAB’s customers and community. Transformable spaces, a mix of furniture, graphics and artwork were all part of the design strategy to draw people in and experience co-working.
An integral part of The Village experience is the opportunity to access the experience, knowledge and talent of community members and business specialists. Workspaces are broken up into a range of meeting pavilions designed to provide the user with a choice of space type – private to open – depending on task or purpose.
