Meta’s strategic office deployment in the pandemic era
Meta confronted the intricate task of establishing a new office in Lagos amid the global pandemic, emphasizing the challenge of crafting a workspace adaptable to the evolving post-COVID ways of working. The primary objective became fostering the future of work in its Lagos Headquarters.
Size: 1,000 square meter
Completion Date: 2021
Scope: Project Management + Interior Design
Localizing global standards
First, as the lead project management firm we consulted with our team of architects, engineers, and contractors to get their input on the project. Localizing Facebook's Global Standards with Designs that reflect their people-oriented culture and emphasize transparency and collaboration was important to us. By thinking outside the box, we were able to design an office space that would meet all of Facebook's needs and be able to withstand the rigors of future growth.
Designing for the future of work
We aligned our design with the future of how people work as they return to the office. We took into account factors like social distancing and flexible workspace solutions so that Facebook would be prepared for whatever comes next.

Virtual reality solutions that foster remote collaboration
We executed the project in the middle of the pandemic. This meant that we had to rely on working remotely, but it also meant that we had to deploy virtual reality technology to keep the Facebook team informed throughout the entire process. Using tools like Holobuilder, we were able to give their team a VR experience that allowed them to be "onsite with us", even though they were hundreds of miles away across the world.
"The team at Spacefinish did a great job designing our new office. This is impressive given that it was delivered mid pandemic."
