Prototyping the workplace: Hayball Sydney Studio

Hayball has created its new collaborative and community-focused studio in Surry Hills, Sydney which serves as more than just a workplace for its employees. The new Hayball Sydney Studio also welcomes children, family members, school groups and organisations.

“The warm and welcoming space places the principles of community and collaboration at the heart of the design. We wanted to craft an inviting space that anyone could feel at home in, whether they be staff, our clients, school groups or our family members,” says David Tordoff, Hayball Sydney Studio director.

“We also do a deep dive into our clients’ values, vision and how they use the space - so why wouldn’t we do the same with our own staff? Everyone on the team are design experts and understand how they best like to work, so their input was extremely valuable in the design,” he explains.

The team also developed a workplace which will serve as a prototype to test new settings and ideas by drawing heavily on research into learning environments. Spaces for play and work are given equal importance to encourage participation, activity and engagement. Multipurpose spaces have been designed to facilitate work tasks while also being suitable for children.
