THE WHAT? L’Oreal has cut the ribbon on its new, purpose-built UK headquarters in London’s White City. The French beauty giant has moved al 1000+ head office employees into the new space.

THE DETAILS The office has been designed to create a future-fit working environment, encouraging staff to choose the best work setting according to their role and the task in hand, and is 10 percent larger than the previous location.

THE WHY? Thierry Cheval, L’Oréal UK & Ireland Managing Director commented, “We believe the office plays a critical role in fuelling this success now and in the future – drawing on each other’s collective intelligence to create the disruptive and innovative ideas that set us apart.

“Our new headquarters is much more than just a physical space; it is an extension of our culture, who we are, our purpose and our values. That’s why it was paramount to take the learnings from the past few years and listen to our people and what they need from their working environment and create a purpose-built space that encourages even greater creativity, collaboration and connection, as well as space for quiet reflection and concentration.”
