Warm and Inviting.
This successful relocation of 168,000 SF corporate headquarters proved to be the perfect opportunity to create the highly transparent, collaborative and branded environment desired by GGP.
Fostering a democratic approach to sharing the daylight, private offices, and conference rooms are internalized while most employees sit near the glass line. Low-height furnishings ensure unobstructed views, allowing for an abundance of natural light throughout the space, and team collaborative areas occupy the space normally reserved for prestigious corner offices. A centralized conference center, along with interchangeable private offices and smaller meeting rooms, provides for future flexibility; a mandatory consideration in the eyes of this forward-thinking organization and today’s ever-changing office environment.
Strategically placed communal “Hubs” create a common area on each floor that’s designed to gather, promote impromptu meetings, encourage a culture of teamwork and foster knowledge sharing. Ordered with an elegant palette of white walls, warm wood ceilings with BionicPro2 Linear fixtures, with BionicPro Perimeter lighting systems for soft vertical illumination intermixed with some wall grazing that highlight this logical and structured environment. The design solution weaves the interactive areas and mix of workspace types together to create an intuitive system of wayfinding over this 3-floor project.
