General Mills is one of the world’s larger food companies, with offices or
manufacturing facilities in more than 30 countries. Dasch Associates was
commissioned to design General Mills’ Australia Head Office Mt Waverly
following a competitive design selection process.
Extensive group consultation was carried out to resolve General Mills’
needs and aspirations, resulting in an innovative fitout that will reinvigorate
their organisation’s culture that is moving towards an increasing team
focus and playful work environment.
Maximising an open plan working environment, breakout spaces and
formal & informal spaces was a way Dasch was able to enhance the
flexibility of the work spaces; improve collaboration among its employees
and clients; and facilitate better communication between teams. To sum
up, the design aimed to reflect GM’s values, culture and approach.
