Case Study: Virgin Media O2 creates a sustainable, inclusive London headquarters with Gensler

Virgin Media O2 saves approximately 630 tonnes of carbon with Gensler

Virgin Media O2 (VMO2) faced the challenge of creating its first major headquarters following its 2021 merger, needing a sustainable and inclusive London office to unite its workforce. The company enlisted the vendor Gensler for interior design services to create a purpose-built environment that celebrated its brand and mission of connectivity.

Gensler implemented a solution that wove the VMO2 brand palette throughout the space and created distinct destination zones on each floor to foster collaboration. With inclusivity and sustainability as key drivers, the design targeted WELL Platinum and BREEAM Outstanding certifications. The sustainable strategies employed by Gensler, including carbon tracking, resulted in an estimated savings of 630 tonnes of carbon.
