IMC Group Singapore

Inspired by IMC Pan Asia Alliance Group (IMC)’s belief that business is intertwined with the sustainability of its greater environment and the well-being of an individual, our design approach is a sensorial one that redefines the boundaries and expectations of a corporate office environment. Drawing inspiration from luxury hospitality, and fusing elements pertaining to art, biophilia and wellness, we sought to create an immersive experience for guests and employees alike.



The front-of-house is reminiscent of a well-appointed yet welcoming hotel lounge. For the reception counter, we created a sculptural piece that also serves as a conversation starter. Cosy booths with curvilinear forms ensure in-between spaces are efficiently utilised, while encouraging spontaneous moments of interaction between employees. The pantry, with its textured bar counter and café-style seating, projects a communal and hospitable vibe. It is intentionally sited next to the boardroom so that both spaces can be combined to accommodate larger gatherings.



At the back of house, a 11-metre-long communal work table makes clever use of two otherwise imposing concrete pillars, creating a prime spot for collaborative work or hotdesking.



The highlight of this workplace is the outdoor terrace—a green retreat and multi-purpose hub that allows employees to take their work or lunch break outside, indulge in a spot of herb gardening, or relax with fellow colleagues after a hard day’s work. It also doubles up as a spacious event and exercise space during the day or when the sun sets. Guided by the circular facade in a separate wing of the office, a curved corridor leads to meeting rooms of various sizes. Some are designated spaces for meditation, recreation and exercise, but can be easily converted to host more formal discussions. Here, a refreshment island offers not just wayfinding directions, but also a quiet nook for work and respite from the busyness of everyday life.



With an emphasis on beauty, nature and creating spaces that encourage rest and reflection, IMC’s new address is set to become a place where creativity and collaboration grow in a most organic manner.
