The entire office space combines aspects of the brand's whiskey products and bar themed accessories, which includes a long and elegant bar of its own. In order to inspire the creativity within staff members, Design Republic decided to infuse the office with simple motivational props and existing brand's products. There are various shelving units that contains highly desired spirits. Additionally, there are quirky aspects to the office props such as the Sail Jerry pinup girl surf board and bright orange bar stools. The ultimate goal for this project was to combine William Grant & Sons work time with play time, while keeping employees stimulated and engaged. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.7/10 - Popularity: 95% | Activity: 69% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Bar-themed Offices:** Companies are designing office spaces that resemble bars to create a more relaxed and creative work environment. - **Branded Office Spaces:** Businesses are incorporating their brand identity into their office design to strengthen their company culture and foster creativity. - **Playful Office Decor:** Unique and quirky office decorations are being used to inspire creativity and create a fun work atmosphere. ### Who This Affects Most - **Interior Design:** Interior design firms have the opportunity to create innovative office spaces that combine elements of work and play. - **Alcohol and Spirits:** Alcohol and spirits companies can consider designing office spaces that showcase their products and brand identity as a way to enhance employee engagement and creativity. - **Office Furniture and Decor:** Providers of office furniture and decor can offer unique and playful products to cater to companies looking to create bar-themed and branded office spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Whiskey Barrel-Decorated Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/laizhou-bar.md) - [Spirits Group Office Headquarters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rmy-cointreau.md) - [Bright Soda-Brand Office Spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocacola-hbc-headquarters.md) - [Tavern-Style Glassware Showrooms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bobo.md) - [Adaptive Wine Workspaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flint-wines-office.md) - [Whisky-Themed Bespoke Glassware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mortlach-by-design.md) - [70s-Inspired Rustic Law Offices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/century-city-law.md) - [Modern Deco Office Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/newgen.md) - [Playful Bar Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/funny-bar.md)
