    Reimagining workspaces

    AstraZeneca reimagines it's offices at Academy House and City House in Cambridge, introducing vibrant breakout zones, flexible meeting areas, and modern workspaces finished with curved Durat surfaces. Designed by Ekho Studios and fabricated by Woodcraft Joinery, the scheme places Durat shelving and wayfinding details at its centre, bringing durability, colour, and sustainable character into the everyday workspace. Made with recycled post production acrylic waste and fully recyclable at the end of its life, Durat combines creativity and craftsmanship to deliver a workplace that inspires daily use.
