TRANSFERWISE is a “unicorn startup” company founded by Estonian tech entrepreneurs Kristo Kaarmann and Taavet Hinrikus, who was one of the pioneers of Skype. It has recently expanded its services globally, and has taken to Singapore for its central hub in the Asia-Pacific region. As a global market company, they recognize the need to eradicate borders - and this resonates in how the plan is drawn and how the design is conducive to a multicultural exchange.

Beyond catering to individual consumers, Transferwise also caters to a basic service that benefits many SMEs across the globe providing them access to more affordable rates in managing payments and fees from international clients and customers. The global but localized concept is key in developing a design that responds to the needs of the client.

The company plans rapid growth of the workforce in the office to complement its online efforts including engineering, operations and marketing teams to be deployed by the end of the year and also to provide a stronger 24/7 presence globally. The Singapore office design incorporates flexibility for the users and responds to the diversity required to enhance the working processes of the employees for maximum performance in a robust and energetic environment.
