Synthesia & British Land20,000 sq ftWest EndCAT B

Located in the heart of the city's ‘Knowledge Quarter’, Synthesia's new 20,000 sq ft HQ marks their rapid growth with a workspace that reflects the brand’s values and goals, cementing their reputation as a global AI leader.

As a British Land asset, Synthesia’s new headquarters required close collaboration between landlord and occupier. Our role was to translate Synthesia’s vision into a distinctive workplace while meeting British Land’s standards and creating a flexible, future-proof space.

Designed as a ‘knowledge hub’, the workplace combines innovative, collaborative spaces with high-quality, permanent finishes. Brand-led furniture, signage and wayfinding bring Synthesia’s identity to life while maintaining flexibility for future occupiers.

    Designing for Different Work Styles

    Almost four times the size of Synthesia’s previous office, the new headquarters was designed around the different ways people work.

    Flexible, purpose-driven zones support everything from focused individual work to spontaneous collaboration. ‘The Library’ provides a calm environment for deep focus, using an earthy palette of dark green and ecru. In contrast, ‘The Spaceship’ acts as a collaborative oasis within the open-plan workspace, with a circular layout, curved furnishings, sheer partitions, planting and a bespoke light feature.

    The wider floorplate was carefully planned to create a natural flow between social and focused areas. A refined breakout space sits at the entrance, while meeting rooms and open-plan workspaces are positioned towards the windows to maximise natural light and support productivity and wellbeing.

    An Elevated Expression of the Brand

    Synthesia’s identity is woven throughout the space in a refined and considered way. Rather than relying heavily on its signature blue, we introduced softer tones through furniture, creating subtle but recognisable brand moments.

    Meeting rooms each have their own character, using bespoke neutral palettes inspired by Synthesia’s playful identity. Names including ‘Pulse’, ‘Nova’ and ‘Spark’ reinforce the company’s progressive, future-focused culture.

    From tailored meeting rooms and creative wayfinding to carefully selected furniture, the brand is brought to life without compromising the longevity or flexibility of the workplace.
