This project comprises workplace strategy development and interior design services for Deloitte in Toronto, Canada, setting new workplace standards for the professional services industry. Deloitte Toronto's 420,000 sq ft will perform as the firm’s national HQ and will be home to 4,000 staff, with room for expansion in the 27 storey tower. 

As a starting point, Arney Fender Katsalidis developed a podium concept at the base of the tower that allowed the creation of a six-storey contiguous interior atrium to be constructed as the heart for the organisation. Helping to activate the space, the atrium connects several amenities, including the Wellness Centre, Deloitte Greenhouse (an innovation lab area), Deloitte University, Bistro, Business Lounge, Outdoor Terrace, One Stop Shop and Conference Centre, and the colleague floors.

Arney Fender Katsalidis worked closely with Deloitte to create a workplace that would be a business tool to realise its aim of becoming the employer of choice across its myriad of business units. Deloitte needed a flexible space that fostered creativity, innovation and productivity through inspiring common spaces and bespoke work areas that cater to the needs of every type of employee and service offering. With over 18 different types of worksettings, choices include personal work areas, open plan workstations, enclosed offices, treadmill desks, sit-stand workstations, brainstorming rooms, think tanks, quiet rooms with closed doors, ‘work with a view’ stations and dedicated quiet zones.
