Adobe Offices – London

PhotographyMark Cocksedge

Gensler developed the new workspace for software giant Adobe, located in London, England.

Gensler has recently revealed its design of a 45,000 square foot office space for Adobe, offering a transformational workspace that fosters collaboration, agile working and learning whilst delivering an environment infused with the firm’s inherent creative nature.

Located over three full floors of the White Collar Factory in Old Street, London, the office space not only relocates the multinational computer software company, but also consolidates it into a unified EMEA Headquarters, marking a significant addition to East London’s tech hub. The design brings staff together and enables chance encounters and conversations between different user groups, while at the same time retaining a strong brand experience.

Two complete floors house working spaces exclusively, with both fixed and agile hot desk clusters allowing staff to select their ideal workspace. Adobe’s new London space is the first Adobe office to utilize digital floor plans, whereby sensors under each desk respond to occupancy, feeding information back to digital floor plans located at entry points to identify free desk space.
