Bringing nature indoors and creating space for both quiet reflection and social interaction transforms the workplace experience.
A principled design approach captures the essence of the city while fostering a sense of community and connectivity between people, nature, and the urban environment. Workstations, conference rooms, and integrated plant life are organized around the building’s structure and city views. Floor-to-ceiling glass, an abundance of natural light, and advanced air circulation and filtration systems contribute to a healthy and collaborative office environment. The new workplace meets HFG’s corporate standards while creating a unique experience that reflects the culture of the local office.
Local materials and custom artworks create an authentic, enriched experience for teams and guests.
The move to a new in-person office and the custom floor plan will enhance the workplace environment for our employees and be very well received by our business partners,
says Asadullah Khan, managing partner and senior partner at HFG’s.
This new space will support our work as we expand our relationships, find new sources of value creation for our clients, and give our team the chance to be a part of HFG’s incredible energy.
Ammad Ahmed, associate partner – Designs & Creatives in Karachi, was slow to return to the office as the pandemic eased, but the opening of this new office changed his outlook.
It’s just so bright and vibrant, with lots of sunlight

He says.

The various themes, seating, colors; we get to explore different

moods and sides of ourselves depending on what we want.

The underlying goal of creating an in-office journey worthy of journeying to is to build and strengthen connectivity among employees. “Work happens no matter where you are,” says Asad

but collaboration and the elevation of work doesn’t. So, this is all

about making that magic of collaboration.”
