by Jeff Squires

virgin media With the assistance of Headline Design, Virgin Media Group have re-branded over 1000 of their buildings throughout the UK. Hoping to foster a new work environment that caters to a younger generation (the average age of a Call Center employee is 23), the designers focused on converting underused areas of buildings into more lively, communal areas where the distinctions between workers and management disintegrates. They call the new work environment ‘Our Neighborhood’ are hoping the new face lift encourages workers to feel more comfortable interacting with one another.
