Check out the colorful AkzoNobel House designed through Dulux and automotive paints

Its color and vibrance is inspired by ‘architecturally interesting’ Arab Street.

Located at Changi Business Park Vista, AkzoNobel House in Singapore has been designated as the regional headquarters for AkzoNobel Paints (Singapore), the MNC that owns the Dulux Paints brand amongst others.

The new office wants to integrate the many different business divisions of AkzoNobel Paints scattered over Singapore into one centralized office location on the East Coast of Singapore. The new AkzoNobel House occupies a space of under 100,000 sq ft with over four floors for 200+ employees.

AkzoNobel House appointed Cameron Woo Design (CWD) as the interior design firm whose responsibility also included Project Management to head up this project.

According to a representative from CWD, one of AkzoNobel’s key directives was to design a very creative, colourful, open office by using AkzoNobel products such as Dulux and automotive paints. AkzoNobel House wants to know how CWD can create lifestyle spaces even in an office environment, using a very simple product such as paint. Another important requirement was for their Client to obtain Green-mark Certification for the project and this was successfully achieved at the conclusion of the project.

“The team dynamics for this project was excellent, each consultant from the Cost consultant, M&E Consultant, Security consultant, IT consultant and ID Contractors was a subject matter expert in their respective fields and contributed to the project in a positive and proactive way which ensured that the project was delivered on time, on budget and surpassing the Client’s expectation in terms of Design and quality,” she said.

AkzoNobel House boasts of an open atrium on Level 5 and 6 which provides fantastic natural light into the office space and special requirements such as a teleconferencing room with custom audio visual equipment to be catered for in the design.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
