The ACC was out of space in their current office building and needed a strategy where they could renovate in place to allow for the growth they had experienced, along with providing an agile and more open environment for the team members. The project consisted of a renovation in place of the first floor of their headquarters along with an expansive brand immersion throughout the space. A conscious effort was put forth in the selection of interior finishes – those being a nice clean and a neutral palette to provide the backdrop of the branded ACC team graphics on display throughout the space.
Included in the first-floor revocation, was the boardroom that not only provided a championship hosted meeting room, but doubled as an employee lounge- an informal collaborative team huddle space that the building did not previously provide. New furniture was deployed to support the wellness and agility of the employees. A project highlight is definitely the PolyVision electric glass on the meeting room down the main corridor, providing privacy for the occupants with just the flip of a switch.
