Reconnecting through art.

As hybrid working continues to reshape the rhythm of our workplaces, companies are rethinking how culture is built and how meaningful connections are maintained.

With many teams in the office just a few days a week, those informal networks that once grew organically now need a more intentional touch.

As part of RPC’s wider art programme, we recently hosted the first in a new series of events focused on human connection and cultural engagement. Led by artist and architect Tannaz Oroumchi, the session invited participants to reimagine urban space through collaborative drawing — a playful yet powerful way to shift perspective.

Tannaz’s work explores how cities can be reshaped not only in their physical form but also in how they influence our social and emotional lives. “Architecture,” she writes, “can affect deep structures of belief… it opens the possibility for other ways of being to emerge.”

During the workshop, colleagues worked together on translucent maps based on Tannaz’s original drawings. Using Posca paint pens, they created layered and colourful visions of place. Each mark became part of a shared imaginary. The result was a collective composition that felt vibrant, responsive, and entirely their own.

This is what art in the workplace can do. It doesn’t just fill walls, it builds bridges. It fosters fresh thinking, collective authorship and a sense of belonging in the everyday.

For RPC, it marked a moment to pause, play, and reconnect, not just with creativity, but with each other.
