MSIG Asia reveals new look for Singapore office

The new office was designed with sustainability in mind.

MSIG Asia has unveiled its revamped office in Singapore, as the insurer gears up for its return to the office.

​

Spanning two floors, the 1,670 sqm workspace is built with sustainability as a focus in its design.

Designed with sustainability as a focus and adopting an open concept, the new layout is set to maximise natural daylight and to make the office interior look more expansive. On top of that, motion sensor lights are installed for energy efficiency and only Energy Star-certified appliances are spotted in the office. Finishes such as paints, laminates, wallpapers, floor vinyl and acoustic panels are all eco-certified by Singapore Environment Council. Overall, approximately 80% of the office was reused or repurposed to reduce wastage.

Employees also celebrated the new office by participating in traditional Japanese Taiko drumming, in line with the brand’s Japanese lineage. Activities such as Japanese calligraphy, upcycling workshops such as coconut husk planting, coffee cup holder making, and more were just some of the things returning employees enjoyed during the inauguration.

MSIG Asia has also purchased a series of 12 limited edition fine art prints featuring the beauty of Mother Nature, with 100% of the proceeds going to the insurer’s partner and biodiversity environmental non-profit organisation, Conservation International to commemorate the new office workspace. Commissioned by Rosenstiels, one of the world’s leading publishers of fine art prints, the series is created with the aim to spread awareness of environmental threats and what the community can do to help.
