After having been in the same space for fifteen years, ADA relocated their headquarters to an 80,000 square foot space and created a new fresh look. The project’s design process coincided with a transition between CEO’s with differing visions. Wanting to depart from the traditional office and workstation layout, the design became much more contemporary as ADA embraced today’s workplace trends.
These trends included eliminating all offices with the exception of one executive office, joining the adjacent floors with an atrium and two story living wall, exposed ceiling in the large open office spaces, low height workstations with adjustable height desks, and providing a variety of quiet rooms and meeting spaces of varied sizes and seating styles. The result is a comfortable “resi-mercial” space with large day-lit work areas surrounded by support spaces for individuals or an all-hands gathering.
Behind this is a back drop of design conventions to aid navigating the large floor plates. Starting at the elevator lobbies, ADA’s story is told in black and white photography on the elevator doors and on the columns in the main corridors. Each of the building quadrants is color coded and includes multiple coordinated fabrics on the workstation panels in the open office. The center of each quadrant is highlighted by a brightly colored graphic wall with pendant lights and acoustic panels marking a collaborative area. Each of the main corridors features a contrasting red floor path and a hint of a red wall marking the coffee bars and workrooms.
