At approximately 8,000 sq. ft., a roof-garden space sits atop the third floor of the Spanx corporate
headquarters building in Atlanta, adjacent to the interior dining space. Designed to accommodate a
large event of as many as 500, the space also breaks down into smaller spaces which accommodate
intimate conversations and gatherings. With a custom serpentine Ipe garden bench and platform
edge, the space is organized around a central synthetic-turf lawn panel.
Outdoor dining is accommodated under a large steel canopy, designed with a rough, urban feel
and appointed and finished with custom drapery, ceiling fans, heaters, and string lights. Keeping
with contemporary flexible workplace trends, employees are offered multiple choices, from outdoor
covered workspaces, a private raised stage platform looking back at the dining space, and a custom
Ipe shadowbox wall surround with a counter overlooking the streets of Buckhead. Two sides of the
space are surrounded with metal panels and faux planted green walls designed to frame the space
and create a more intimate scale for tenants to use and engage within the central amenity.
