Project Overview

The modern workplace has changed and the spaces that support it need to change too. This office redesign in Seattle was built around a simple but powerful idea: that people work better when their environment gives them variety, comfort, and a sense of identity. The new design provides a range of working settings from focused individual workstations to informal collaboration zones and enclosed meeting spaces allowing the team to choose the environment that best suits the task at hand. Aesthetically, the office communicates a clear personality: contemporary, grounded, and genuinely considered.

The Challenge

The original office had been laid out for a different era of working a rigid arrangement of identical desks that offered no flexibility and made no concession to the way modern teams actually operate. Acoustic control was poor, meaning conversation in one area disrupted focus in another. The lighting was uneven and largely fluorescent, creating a flat, uninspiring environment. Perhaps most importantly, the space had no identity nothing about it communicated who the company was or what they valued.

Our Solution

We introduced a varied workstation arrangement using modular furniture that the team can reconfigure as their needs change. Acoustic panels were integrated throughout the open-plan areas built into partition screens, ceiling baffles, and soft furnishings to dramatically improve sound management without making the space feel closed in. Enclosed meeting pods and a comfortable informal lounge area were added to give the team genuine alternatives to the desk. A unified colour palette, custom joinery, and carefully selected artwork and brand elements gave the office a coherent identity for the first time. The lighting strategy used a mix of direct and indirect sources to eliminate the harshness of the previous fluorescent system and create a more comfortable, productive environment throughout the day.
