Fraser Health, one of Canada’s largest and fastest growing health authorities, had been challenged since its inception in 2002 by the lack of office space in their headquarter city of Surrey BC; as a result, Fraser Health employees were scattered in eleven small offices. Upon leasing 110,000 SF on two floors in a new Surrey tower, SSDG Interiors was brought in to design and implement ‘transformational change’, the words used by the CEO to describe their vision of one new consolidated workplace with no private offices. The result is a design strategy that provides open collaborative work space, maximized natural light and views, and operational and leasing cost savings.
