Our Mission
Advertising Agency Monks is well known around the world for having an amazing workplace and culture.
Recently, the team were relocating to their spacious new office in Barangaroo, Sydney. Monks needed an experienced audio visual partner to manage all aspects of the relocation and office fit-out providing exciting new technology to meet the needs of the business.
As part of our ongoing partnership, Sound with Vision had the privilege of working alongside Facilitate on this project.
Our Work
Spanning two locations and the complete fit-out of an entire floor, Monks, who are known for their innovative thinking, required cutting-edge equipment to turn their creativity into reality.
A Seamless Relocation & Fit-out
As well as the move from the old location to the new, the Sound with Vision team specified and installed a range of upgraded technology to help the agency maintain their technological edge.
A lot can go wrong when moving audio visual equipment. So, for the Monks office move, special care was taken when the tech equipment was decommissioned, packed, transported, stored to then be reinstalled at the new agency location.
The Sound with Vision team of technicians and removalists worked together to ensure everything went smoothly and according to plan. Sound with Vision was thrilled to collaborate with the design teams to add our input into the furniture and electrical layouts to get everything set up, connected and working perfectly for day one in the new office.
“Monks are synonymous the world over for creative thinking, digital experience design, and innovative technology solutions for brands and agencies.
We are proud to play our part in helping them deliver these world-class creative solutions to Australia’s enterprise clients”.
