Beyond Desks and Deadlines: Crafting a Return to Office People Actually Want

A few words from our Founder, Mathew Howe
‘I have a perspective on office life that spans two very different worlds. Before the pandemic, I spent ten hours a day on a trading floor in banking, rooted to the same seat, surrounded by six to eight screens and multiple phones. Breakfast and lunch were eaten at my desk after a quick dash to grab them. There were no breakout areas, no spaces to connect’

‘During Covid, I left banking and began growing food, a personal project that evolved into the Grobrix urban farming movement. Since then, I have walked through offices of every kind — large and small, across sectors from tech to pharmaceuticals, energy to real estate, in the CBD and in industrial zones, from MNCs to local firms. I have seen companies completely reimagine their spaces for hybrid work. More communal areas. Fewer conventional desks. Onsite has become the new offsite. The question now is simple: how do we make the office a place people want to come to?’

Grobrix Urban Farm Installation Options

Inspired by Lego bricks, Grobrix is modular and adaptive. It was designed for home, but always with the hope that commercial locations would one day find a use for it. You can..

  • Wall mount it
  • Window frame mount it
  • Build it into renovation fit-outs
  • Have it free standing
  • Choose it to be mobile or static

However you imagine your space, Grobrix can grow with it. This picture shows how Marina Bay Sands have chosen to showcase it: mobile and framed, paired with an information screen that sparks conversation around food waste and food security. More information attached here that highlights all the different ways that Grobrix can be deployed with examples from our fleet of installation across Asia and the United States.

Success Stories: LinkedIn’s Journey to a Sustainable and Healthy Workplace with Grobrix

Fresh produce is more than nourishment; it’s a powerful tool for promoting sustainability initiatives and sparking employee engagement. At LinkedIn’s APAC headquarters in Singapore, Grobrix’s vertical farming walls have become a cornerstone of the company’s food program, enhancing workplace wellness and strengthening team bonding.

Driven by a commitment to sustainability, wellness, and community, Grobrix partners with innovative companies like LinkedIn to create vibrant, health-conscious workplaces. We spoke with Natalie Hall, International Workplace Program Manager at LinkedIn, about how Grobrix’s green walls are transforming the office environment and supporting the company’s vision for a sustainable future.
