SCG International branch office in Dhaka was designed with an emphasis on creating a professional yet dynamic space that aligns with the company’s global brand. The project involved transforming a 1500 sqft area into a vibrant and functional workspace that fosters collaboration, productivity, and a sense of modernity. The design reflects SCG’s identity while ensuring optimal use of space for both open workstations and private meeting rooms.
Our design process considered not only the physical layout but also the psychological and emotional needs of the users. By incorporating a human-centered approach, the space promotes well-being, efficiency, and a welcoming atmosphere for employees and visitors alike.
Design in Concept
Biophilic Elements:
To create a balanced environment, the design incorporated biophilic principles, bringing natural elements into the office. The wooden textures, ample natural light, and calming yet vibrant color schemes connect the occupants to nature, enhancing both mental well-being and creativity. Elements such as the use of wood and natural light were implemented to reduce stress levels and promote a positive work environment.
Color Palette & Branding:
A striking combination of red, white, and wood accents was chosen to reinforce SCG’s brand identity. The bold red ceilings and walls in the reception area create a welcoming statement, ensuring brand visibility while fostering energy and enthusiasm among visitors and employees. Neutral tones, like greys and whites, balance the space, offering a professional tone while making the workspace appear more open and bright.

Vertical wooden paneling behind the desk creates a refined backdrop while enhancing the height of the room. SCG’s brand logo is prominently displayed, reinforcing the company’s global identity.
Workstations & Meeting Spaces:
The open-plan workstations are designed with efficiency and functionality in mind. Glass partitions between areas ensure transparency and communication while maintaining privacy.
