Contract - June 2016 - 111

The cafe and library area
(left and below, right) includes
a kitchen, communal tables,
and high-density shelving for
product samples. Following
a hoteling concept, employees
have seating options, from
workstations to the open areas
that line the perimeter (opposite,
bottom two). A sofa allows for
a more casual atmosphere in
an enclosed meeting room
(below, left).

station" concept-a variation on hoteling in
which employees have multiple seating choices,
with sit-stand desks throughout. In planning
for efficiency, HOK completed an internal survey;
results indicated that about 30 employees were
out of the office so frequently that 20 nondedicated
seats would suffice for their workspace needs.
A warm, inviting environment
"Our previous office was an open environment,
but it was longer and narrower," Turner explains.
That more siloed setup has been remedied by the
new space's compact floor plate. As a bonus, large
windows with panoramic views of the city provide
employees with access to natural light. The
potentially awkward angular corners of the floor
were furnished with informal seating and small
tables for on-the-fly team meetings.
The designers exposed much of the building's
structure to gain ceiling height. Tight floor-to-floor
dimensions meant that a dropped ceiling would
have allowed for a maximum height of only 8 feet
4 inches. "That wasn't something we could live
with," Turner says.
A warm but neutral palette is maintained
throughout. Against vinyl wood-plank flooring,
carpet tiles and area rugs lend color and can be easily
updated. The same is true for the pillows that adorn
the couches and antique pieces that add personality
to the interior. As Senior Vice President Lisa
Fulford-Roy notes, "We're infusing hospitality
into what we do." c
