Neumann/Smith helped Quicken Loans transform 11 floors of the Chrysler House (formerly known as the historic Dime Building, one of Detroit’s oldest skyscrapers) into vibrant corporate office space.
The project, seen as an opportunity for Quicken to recruit young, talented people, included the fit-out of conference rooms, offices, two training centers (approximately 5,000 sf), and collaboration spaces with open concepts throughout. The space also houses the organization’s design team which conducts focus groups to help the organization determine the most efficient office configurations and designs for their own employee success and workplace enjoyment.
Creative design concepts incorporated into the space include writable wall coverings and columns which inspire spur-of-the-moment employee brainstorming and collaboration, bright and inspiring colors, sliding marker boards that double as window treatments, and lounge and kitchen spaces that offer multiple configurations for a variety of gatherings.
