De Beers Mining Canada recently moved their Canadian headquarters to Calgary in effort to position themselves closer to their diamond extraction sites in NWT. JWA created an Interior Design strategy for their YYC International Airport location that fused function with brand. High-density planning is facilitated with Knoll antenna benching for 75+ staff. However, in an effort to avoid monotony, high impact collaboration areas are framed with bold colours in multiple locations throughout the floor. The achromatic colour pallette, diamond patterned carpet, and integrated technology were selected to reflect De Beer's new corporate brand.
