Collaborating with Flow Properties, Workplace Architecture + Design undertook the comprehensive renovation of the main lobby within a 1978 high-rise building as part of an extensive building revitalization initiative. The redesigned space harmonized and illuminated the two-story area, introducing a striking focal point with a monumental connecting stair that accentuates the building’s dramatic angles. This innovative stair design not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also facilitates various functions, enabling the lobby to host events for the building tenants. By seamlessly blending functionality and aesthetics, Workplace Architecture + Design revitalized the lobby, transforming it into a dynamic and versatile space that serves as a vibrant hub within the building’s community.

Workplace A+D was retained by BE Aerospace to help consolidate multiple locations under one roof in the Oak Summit Business Park. The project began with an early capacity study and test fit of the 190 building followed by intensive space programming and standards development. After establishment of planning concepts and guidelines, Workplace A +D orchestrated an exploratory tour of installations and major showrooms with the client to investigate leading edge research and trends for advanced workplace design. Standards developed around flexibility as a priority, technology access, transparency and daylighting, and using modular architecture combined with a sophisticated tool kit of furniture components and open plan collaboration areas. The project included the design and demonstration center for the seating group, with state-of-the-art multi media presentation capability combined with space for prototype aircraft seat, galley, cabin display.

Workplace A+D was proud to work on another project with BE Aerospace (now Collins Aerospace) Co-located with Boeing’s largest production facility and assembly operations, this new flexible-cell manufacturing and engineering site brought together multiple divisions of BE Aerospace including galleys, emergency oxygen systems and lavatories. Using planning guidelines and standards previously developed by Workplace A+D, this facility includes a 65,000 SF office area for 375 engineers and division management, as well as work areas though the production and assembly areas .A unique challenge on this project was the use of high-bay space for the office environment, with delivery of power and data from upper trusses with custom-designed overhead grid system. Semi enclosed spaces in the open plan for managers and conference rooms were designed for flexibility even with the challenge of local seismic codes.

This complete renovation of 370 Knollwood updated the Krispy Kreme headquarters to give their workspace more efficiency as well as incorporated brand expression into the space. Krispy Kreme continued to occupy the 70,000 SF of space during the multi-phased renovation.
Visitors are welcomed, with coffee and doughnuts, to the new two story lobby space connected by a circular stainless steel stair and waterfall, emulating the iconic production line where the doughnuts are bathed in the hot glaze. A custom display in the lobby traces the rich history of the 75+ year old company, and leads to a colorful common break area that doubles as a meeting space.
The updated work areas and meeting rooms are even “glazed” with glass walls and “frosted” with a gradient dot film that provides privacy while still allowing natural light into the building center. Employee beverage stations on each floor are encircled with a vibrant nod to the HOT NOW sign that fans recognize worldwide.
