Cambridge office design and build: Cyted’s workplace evolution to balance growth and collaboration
Cyted envisioned a forward-thinking Cambridge office design and build, emphasising teamwork and well-being. The innovative design solution fosters a collaborative and open work environment, optimising space, fostering unity and accommodating future growth.
Through a variety of types of workspaces the Cyted team can collaboration at a number of destination points across the floorplate. The activity-based working design strikingly balanced dedicated and flexible zones, allowing diverse tasks in a compact environment. Enclosed meeting rooms are offset with semi-enclosed quiet rooms and open lounge spaces are scattered amongst the floor plate to enable the entire team freedom of choice in their working environment depending on the task at hand.
The space also features a dedicated canteen area, complemented by nearby soft seating and games area ensuring staff really can work, rest and play whilst in the office.
AIS created a modern and timeless design with a neutral colour palette reflective of the Cyted corporate branding. A backlit signage feature greets visitors in the main reception lounge, while the space is warmed up with natural timber tones and plenty of biophilia.
The outcome is a consolidated and contemporary Life Sciences workspace that allows Cyted team members to feel more connected to both their colleagues and mission.
