SGV & Co. Talent Office

SGV & Co., the Philippines’ largest multidisciplinary professional services firm with eight offices across the Philippines and a member company of Ernst & Young, engaged dwp as lead consultant for the design & build of their new talent office. SGV desired a workspace for their talent teams that is functional in accommodating visitors and applicants, flexible in hosting training events and most importantly, dynamic in reflecting the brands culture & values.

The design features a welcoming circular reception desk, curved walls to enhance the very rectangular space, high ceilings, natural lighting throughout, a number of open plan areas with digitally agile workstations, collaboration zones for team work and a comfortable pantry area. Pops of SGV brand colour adorn the walls and the entire space is designed to be bright, fresh and enticing, ultimately encouraging applicants to become a part of the dynamic SGV family.

To deliver this workplace in time for the CPA graduate intake dwp were faced with a challenging timeline but with effective management and efficient coordination with sub-consultants dwp were able to deliver both the design and build of this workplace successfully within a total timeline of just 6 weeks.

Signature Restaurant, Discovery Primea

dwp were requested to create the interiors for the signature restaurant, on the 16th floor of the Discovery Primea in Manila; Makati’s new prime luxury condominium development.

Our concept of a ‘kitchen in the sky’, features a central hub, to allow guests to be seated around these areas, to feel part of the cooking process as they observe chefs at work. The restaurant offers an informal atmosphere, but with meticulous attention to detail, reflecting its approach to cuisine. The selected colour palette is neutral and sophisticated, with some vibrant punches of colour injected.

The floors are detailed timber, while the hub sports a houndstooth black and white encaustic tile. The entry is flanked by a splendid wine wall and displays a unique light/planting feature. This spiraling installation enveloped the host station for visual drama, while forming a screen to the bar behind.

The external ‘garden terrace’ features a bar, with relaxed, comfortable seating, ideal for pre and post dinner drinks, with the feel of being in a ‘garden in the sky’, by night.
