WRU come home to Millennium Stadium

As Wales enters a new dawn of rugby, the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) has come home to its national ground at the Millenium Stadium for the first time in ten years. Covering 6,842 square feet, the new office space, designed by Brecon-based office interior specialists, Bbi, is located at the entrance to the stadium off Westgate Street. Roger Lewis, Group Chief Executive of the WRU, said:

“We have wanted to consolidate our departments for a long time and now our goal of creating a modern environment bringing all our expertise under one roof has been achieved. We are very proud of our roots and wanted to retain our presence in the heart of Cardiff. We are delighted with the end results. Bbi has managed to take our vision and make it a reality.”

The new offices are open plan creating an environment of accessibility and transparency. Stephen Price, Account Manager at Bbi, said:

“In this project we were able to showcase our work and our abilities. The brief allowed us not only to work on an iconic Welsh building but to be creative in designing a space that reflected the WRU's brand values. Where possible we used environmentally-friendly products sourced within Wales so that the offices are both exemplar and sustainable.”
