Points of note

It was extremely important to the client that the new facility reflected their position as industry market leaders and offered unsurpassed comfort and appeal to the high calibre of staff they attract. Through a process of thorough research and extensive interviews with the clients’ staff, we were able to create a stunning working environment that was 100% functional and at the same time entirely captured GlobespanVirata’s vision.

Client comment

"The Maris team deserves a huge amount of credit for delivering a project which met our ambitious requirements. The designers took the time to really understand our building, and view it as a 3D space rather than just floor area. The entire team went the extra mile."
