Austell
A Vision Realised with Trend Group
Austell Laboratories, a leader in innovative healthcare solutions, appointed Trend Group to design and construct their new head office in Parktown, Johannesburg. Our selection for this project was driven by our commitment to innovative design and the ability to deliver within a cost-effective budget, ensuring that the needs of Austell’s expanding operations were met.
Transitioning to a Modern, Functional Workspace
Previously housed in outdated offices, Austell sought to transition to a modern and functional workspace that aligned with their growth ambitions. The new location needed to be more accessible and supportive of their evolving needs. Key priorities for the design included incorporating ergonomic, high-quality furniture for staff, implementing advanced automatic systems, and creating adequate facilities for training and meetings, all of which would enhance the overall productivity of the team.

A Contemporary Design with Organic Elements
The final design of the new office embodies a clean, modern, and fresh aesthetic. We incorporated light colours and lush greens to maintain a contemporary feel that promotes well-being and creativity among staff. Organic shapes were thoughtfully integrated into the ceiling and bespoke joinery pieces, providing a sense of fluidity throughout the space. Additionally, we enhanced the atmosphere with strategically placed feature lighting and vibrant wallpapers, creating an inspiring environment that reflects Austell’s forward-thinking ethos.
A New Era for Austell Laboratories
The transformation of Austell Laboratories’ office reflects Trend Group’s dedication to crafting innovative workspaces that cater to the unique needs of our clients. This project not only marks a new chapter for Austell but also showcases how thoughtful design can play a pivotal role in fostering a productive and engaging work environment in the healthcare sector.
