Agency Builds 'Immersive' Office On the Ocean Floor

Global marketing communications agency Fifth Ring has taken its offering to new levels. Not content with having offices in North America, Europe, Middle East and Asia-Pacific, Fifth Ring has embarked on an entirely new project in the form of a new subsea office, bringing it ever closer to its clients and markets. This office will be a fully serviced facility operating directly from the seabed. 

The new facility will form the basis of a new subsea village. Fifth Ring is already unveiling plans for further development with a lithographic printing facility -- complete with pressurized ink waterproofing service -- a coffee shop, laundry and ironing service, corner shop with access to and from each street within the village. There will also be a smoking "shelter" which will be essentially an inverted structure filled with oxygen.

The new office will be accessed via a large platform, which will also double up as a giant billboard, displaying advertising visible from the air, to reach a highly targeted audience of transient offshore workers. Headlines, however, must feature at least one word that contains the letter ‘H’.

Of the new office, Fifth Ring Director of Business Development, Ian Ord said "At the end of the day, we want to be able to relate to our client base. With many of our clients being in the subsea sector, this was the logical step forward."
