Jacobs had a straightforward brief for their North Sydney office, and the order reflected exactly that. Eight platters of sandwiches, wraps, and baguettes, enough to keep a full team fed without any fuss around setup or serving.

What made this work well in a workplace context is how self-contained each platter is. People can grab what suits them, move on, and get back to whatever the day holds. No cutlery, no plates, no one waiting on anyone else. For a team lunch that needs to run smoothly alongside a busy schedule, that practicality matters more than most things.

The baguettes in particular tend to hold up better over a longer lunch window, which is useful when not everyone breaks at the same time.
