The new Diageo office in Ho Chi Minh is a celebration of life through the rich history of art and craft in Vietnam combined with the passion for life and discernment of fine spirits that is a hallmark of the Vietnamese. The city is home, after all, to the most expensive collection of whisky in the world.
The space mixes many different elements into a rich, exciting blend that will at times impress, delight, energise and create calm. Each space caters to different work modes allowing for effective work and great collaboration.
The feature wood veneer artwork in the bar reflects the dynamic spirit of people celebrating life's moments every day, everywhere. Through a nuanced interplay of geometric forms and intersecting lines, the piece captures the lively essence of individuals engaged in the daily interactions of life, emphasising the contemporary pulse of Vietnam.
The artwork transcends specific moments to become an enduring tribute to the universal human experience of celebrating life in all its facets, focusing on our similarities, not our differences.
