The new home for Steelcase in India is strategically located to allow easy access from the Central Business District and areas with the highest concentration of startups, architecture & design firms, and other creative industries, offering customers a world of inspiring ideas and new workplace experiences to help them drive staff engagement and business performance.

Spanning over 12,742 square-foot space, the WorkLife Center occupies a modern, four-storey standalone building featuring a double-height glass façade and an outdoor terrace.

As visitors arrive, they will be greeted at a communal oak café table by a concierge, before entering the WorkCafé – a welcoming and informal space, where guests and Steelcase employees can dine, meet, socialise and connect, kickstarting the showcase of an array of workplace settings: Focus, Collaborate, Connect and Rejuvenate. The identity of this WorkLife Center pays homage to the city’s traditional past while celebrating its dynamic, technology-driven present and future. Drawing upon the city’s agricultural heritage and its recognition as India’s ‘Garden City’, the architecture of the space forms a pristine backdrop of natural materials, textures and colours, allowing the carefully curated collections showcased within to infuse vibrancy and become the focal point.
