Our designers’ enthusiasm and expertise ensure that this strategy is implemented in the best possible way, developing client spaces of unparalleled functionality and sophistication.

WHO WE ARE
Since its inception in 1973, DBI has provided full-service architecture and interior design services to clients who share our belief that beautiful environments foster meaningful human interaction and successful business outcomes. We have not only witnessed, but have been pioneers of, the evolution of design. As a result, we have extensive and authentic knowledge of, and experience with, designing state-of-the-art buildings, and building interiors. Our work embraces forward-thinking, contemporary design, so that the spaces we design exemplify the most cutting-edge, dynamic, and creative approaches.
Our clients include the commercial and residential real estate communities; federal government agencies; corporations and technology firms; the hospitality and restaurant industry; and local, national, and international organizations. With our office in the Washington, DC region, DBI is ideally located to respond rapidly to project needs and to adhere to rigorous production schedules. Our mid-sized firm is able to meet the demands of large projects while being intimately involved in their design— we are large enough to deliver and small enough to care.
DBI recognizes that the design of our built environment has a lasting effect on the health of our natural environment. DBI is a member of the US Green Building Council. Also DBI ensures that a significant percentage of our designers are LEED® or WELL accredited and, whenever possible, specifies materials, furniture, and other products that are sustainable and energy efficient.
To reduce and monitor the environmental footprint of our projects, we maintain a carefully planned and integrated technological design platform that harnesses state-of-theart architectural design software. In addition to conveying
conceptual designs quickly and in great detail, we are able to perform building energy and performance analyses to determine which architectural designs have the least environmental impact. Our technological platform also enables us to create highly coordinated sets of construction documents that link building component information to external databases for postoccupancy space and asset management.

SERVICES
MASTER PLANNING
From the beginning of a project, our master planning services comprehensively evaluate the characteristics of a specific property and, then, illustrate the design concepts that work best for the site. Our experience and expertise provide a reliable guide through the range of land use, zoning, traffic, environmental, and demographic issues that often arise during complex projects.
ARCHITECTURE
Established in the 1990s, our architectural division provides expertise in building design, including government buildings, commercial office buildings, residential and multi-use, schools, colleges and universities, and churches.
INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN
We offer a full range of architecture and design services to create interiors that are both elegant and functional. Our clients include the commercial and residential real estate communities; federal government agencies; corporate, association, and legal enduser organizations; technology firms; and local, national, and international organizations.
STEALTH DESIGN
Beginning with the design of computer rooms in the early 1980s, we have created a variety of technology-oriented spaces, including sensitive compartmented information facilities, network operation centers, switch sites, data centers, advanced concept laboratories, and video teleconferencing centers.
EXTENDED CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION
To ensure that a project is completed according to the price agreed upon during bidding, we provide extended part- or
full-time representation at the construction site. We monitor the project’s progress and quality of work, as well as the contractor’s construction schedule; respond to requests for information; maintain project records; evaluate shop drawings, product data, and samples; review the contractor’s applications for payment; conduct inspections to determine substantial and final completion; and administer project close-out procedures.
FURNITURE MANAGEMENT
From systems furniture and casegoods for office spaces to complex solutions for operations, command, and conference centers, we can coordinate furniture requirements for all spaces. In addition to creating a furniture plan tailored to the specifications of any project, we offer guidance in manufacturer selections and workspace designs; handle procurement and installation processes; and manage all vendors on-site.
MOVE MANAGEMENT/FACILITY MANAGEMENT
We provide consulting and on-site facility management services to corporate, institutional, and government clients. Whether moving a bookcase or coordinating an entire office relocation, we successfully implement move and facility management policies by partnering with our clients to understand their organization’s structure, business goals, and culture. Projects encompass both daily moves and complete reconfigurations due to growth, contraction, or mission changes, as well as special projects that support the client. Specific tasks have included “box” moves for thousands of people to different locations within the same building, or between different facilities, as well as consolidation or expansion of space between floors, or from building to building.
ROSEANNE BEATTIE, AIA | Principal
Over my 40-year career at DBI, I have worked my way up the ladder from entry-level architect to principal architect. Along that path, I was afforded the same opportunities as my male counterparts. I have been financially compensated the same as my male colleagues. Since starting at DBI in 1981, I have never felt the slightest discrimination based on my gender.
DBI has always been welcoming. Over the course of my career, I've had two children, taken 12 weeks of maternity leave each time, and was welcomed back to my job after each pregnancy. DBI has always been accommodating to families, providing temporary part-time and permanent part-time positions based on family obligations.
MICHAEL HARTMAN, AIA | Principal
In my 35 years at DBI, diversity has been consistently at the core of the firm, yet never consciously imbued in its daily life. It has simply been a part of us. In fact, when working to create a diversity and equity policy for the firm, it seemed as if we were just documenting what already existed. Always strong with strong women, the firm has embraced those from all races, ethnicities, religions, most all continents, LGBTQ identifying, and even straight white men!
When DBI President Alan Storm wanted to bring on partners to the firm some twenty years ago, he chose two women and me, a gay man, to join him to carry the firm forward. These partners were chosen simply for their contributions to the firm, the practice of architecture, and humanity. This remains strong at the core for all.
FELIPE TURRIAGO-BORRERO, LEED AP | Managing Director, Architecture
Coming to the United States from Columbia in early 2000, I had a vision of a “land of opportunity” – as many immigrants do. I found myself lucky enough to come on board with GAA first and later with DBI, where, under Alan Storm’s leadership, the place of my birth is seen as an opportunity to broaden the organization’s worldview.
DBI’s commitment to diversity has led to an expanded design vocabulary, as each of us brings our own experiences to the vernacular of the firm. The diversity that Alan promotes extends to gender, age, ethnicity, and country of origin, all working toward a common goal.
EBONG UKOR, AIA, NCARB | Senior Manager
Over my fifteen years as an architect with DBI, diversity has always been firmly and warmly embraced. Leadership has always made it clear – through word and deed – that the talent, energy, and results of architects and designers are the primary criteria for measuring success. But more than that, DBI has embraced diversity as key to unlocking the greater aspirations of the firm. In my career at DBI, with colleagues from South America, the Middle East, eastern Europe, and – yes—the United States, I have found that everyone’s opinion matters, and each of those opinions is valued. Where you are from is important, but what you bring to the table in terms of innovative design is what really sets the firm apart. As a Nigerian immigrant to the United States, and as a Black man in America, I can say that these things are of the utmost importance. At DBI, I truly feel I am among family, and am valued as such.
DIVERSITY
DBI Architects brings to the field of architecture and interior design an inspired, inclusive, and forward-looking design methodology. DBI presents one of the longest continual legacies of diversity in the industry – we embraced multiformity in the workplace decades before its importance was seen in the industry at-large. With inclusion of women in leadership roles, representation of minorities at all levels of management and staff, and the welcoming of differences as the rule rather than the exception, DBI has, over the years, become a crucible where talent and initiative are the defining factors.
That talent and initiative have borne out in groundbreaking, award-winning designs.
DBI continues to develop a deep portfolio of projects achieving various levels of LEED certifications.

SUSTAINABILITY
DBI recognizes that the design of our built environment has a lasting effect on the health of our natural environment.

All DBI staff are committed to the importance of environmental issues and their impact on the design of our built environment.
When specifying finishes, fixtures, materials, or furniture, DBI specifies recycled materials wherever possible, does not consider woods from endangered rain forests, and avoids materials that have a long-term, detrimental effect on the environment. The firm’s goal is to incorporate goods that are sustainable, energy efficient, and environmentally friendly.

02 PROCESS
TEST- FIT PROGRAMMING
SECURITY DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
THE PROCESS
It comes down to caring.
At DBI, we work to create award-winning projects with every design – regardless of the budget.
We work to ensure that the client receives the best value for their investment. We understand that our clients have two budgets: the dollars available for design and construction, and the time allotted to get the job done. DBI keeps a close eye on both.
With DBI, you can expect in-depth engagement from project initiation to completion. We’re here to help visualize your “organizational truth” in a physical space that will facilitate the productivity and employee engagement objectives you’ve established. We’re here to help you more fully understand
and interpret that truth in an environment that infuses brand and culture into every aspect of the workplace – immediately engaging staff, visitors, and clients and presenting the best representation of organizational values and goals.
The process that DBI follows is not dissimilar to the process many design firms might follow. It’s what we bring to the process that sets us apart.
Beginning with test-fitting, visioning, and programming, we work to understand the corporate culture. We work to develop standards, based on what we’ve learned, to provide a sense of consistency throughout the finished space.
From the beginning, we’ll discuss branding, and the discussion will bear on and influence design

development. More than a logo on a wall, more than a set of corporate colors, branding is that difficultto-define set of qualities, characteristics, ideals, and other criteria that define an organization and what it stands for. DBI works with you to identify the details that tell your “brand story.” From these observations, a palette of colors, textures, finishes, and furniture will be developed to create a space that boldly states the organization’s identity.
We pride ourselves on delivering on-time, on-budget, and with “no surprises.” Using tools such as Revit allows us to provide clients with 3-D views from the

PERMIT & G.C. SELECTION CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION
POST OCCUPANCY FEEDBACK
very early stages of the project so you won’t have to try to interpret flat representations of your space. And, DBI will develop different scenarios to make the way to proceed more clear.
DBI engages in an inward-facing value engineering throughout the design process. We understand that opportunities for cost savings and schedule management are greatest in the early stages of the project and diminish as work progresses. As a result, emphasis is placed on controlling these aspects during the schematic design and design development phases of a project. At these stages, factors that may adversely affect the cost of a design can be identified and alternative action taken, if necessary.
Cost control and time management are fundamental
and continually monitored. We include valuepriced alternatives as we develop the palette. We’re also careful to seek out solutions that will not be bogged down in supply-chain bottlenecks. We want you to “spend wisely” – in your budget and in your schedule.
As we develop construction documents, we engage the client in “page turn” sessions. These sessions are high-level but in sufficient depth and detail to be sure that the needs of the project are being met. During this phase DBI gathers bids from general contractors, evaluates the proposals submitted, and provides recommendations on general contractor selection.
Construction administration is a critical phase of the process. DBI remains fully engaged at this stage,
ensuring that everything reflected in the construction documents is built to specifications. DBI remains highly involved throughout construction administration, advocating for our client and making sure their needs are met.
During move in and even post-occupancy, DBI provides customer service as needed, perfecting the design, and gathering feedback to make adjustments, as necessary. Our work does not end when the punch list is completed.
We’ll be there to assure design, functionality, branding, fit, and finish meet or exceed expectations. Because when all is said and done, it comes down to caring.

Mr. Storm has 48 years of architectural design, management, and real estate experience. As the majority owner of DBI, he has overall responsibility for the firm’s strategic direction, design philosophy, management, and marketing. He is closely involved with the conceptual design of major projects and works with senior staff to oversee the firm’s direction and performance. A dedicated, discerning, and inspiring leader since joining the Design for Business companies in 1975, he is both a consummate architect and an esteemed industry authority. In addition to his commitment to staff mentoring and development, Mr. Storm views client satisfaction as DBI’s ultimate objective. He values the enduring relationships that DBI develops with clients, building owners, government contractors, and federal and local governments—and views these relationships as a testament to the principles of integrity and truth upon which DBI is based. “Few things are more gratifying,” he comments, “than taking a lot of detailed information, as well as human feelings and desires, and assimilating everything into a design solution that surpasses my client’s expectations.”

YEARS WITH DBI
48 years
ROSEANNE BEATTIE PRINCIPAL-IN-CHARGE
Drawing on 40 years of industry experience, Ms. Beattie contributes significantly to DBI’s overall strengths, adding both depth and breadth to the firm’s collective and evolving body of knowledge. Focusing her career on large government and institutional clients, as well as a substantial balance of private sector work, she has held the longest-running contracts at DBI, managing projects for the World Bank, International Finance Corporation, and the International Monetary Fund for 18 years. Roseanne believes that the success of both short- and long-term projects depends on several factors: maintaining schedule deadlines and being responsive to client concerns; defining the problem at hand and finding the best—yet most cost-effective—solution; having the ability to adapt to change as projects evolve in scope; and anticipating and resolving challenges before they arise. For Roseanne’s long-term clients, she and DBI have responded to more than 5,000 individual task orders.

MICHAEL HARTMAN, AIA PRINCIPAL
Mr. Hartman is responsible for the management of the firm, as well as the management of the design and coordination of interior architecture projects from building selection through contract administration. During his 36 years at DBI, he has focused on establishing and managing long-term relationships with corporate clients, building owners, developers, and brokers. He has been instrumental in the firm’s significant growth, both in its expansion from an interiors-only to an interior design, architecture, and planning firm and in its staff development. Michael enjoys mentoring staff and cultivating an environment that motivates employees to engage deeply with projects and to learn from their team members. His design philosophy stems from his belief that architecture is, at its core, a process and practice undertaken for the benefit of society by encouraging people to engage with the built and natural environments. He finds the design of interior architecture, particularly in the workplace, highly rewarding due to its detailed focus on the specific aspects of people’s daily interaction and work processes.

CRAIG SNIDER VICE PRESIDENT / FSO
Mr. Snider is responsible for the management, design, and coordination of interior and base building architecture projects from building selection through contract administration. In addition to providing expertise in BOMA calculations, he determines the best use of computer applications and systems in project design and facility management requirements. As DBI’s Facility Security Officer, Mr. Snider manages and maintains oversight of all cleared personnel and provides submissions for investigation requests. He performs annual security briefings, as well as facility self-inspections, and manages cleared contracts and DBI’s day-to-day security requirements. The majority of Mr. Snider’s work in the past 15 years has centered on the management of DBI’s term contract with the FBI (awarded in 2006), which provides on-site personnel to work on projects involving resident agencies and field offices located throughout the United States and FBI Headquarters locations locally. Projects have encompassed both new facilities and the renovation of existing facilities. In addition, Mr. Snider directed DBI’s work on the on-call interior design contract for Prince William County, VA, awarded to the firm in 2009. The scope of work for this project included the review of the County’s Facilities Master Plan (2015), as well as several other facilities reconfiguration task orders.

MICHAEL BOYER, IIDA, LEED AP MANAGING DIRECTOR, INTERIORS
During his 26 years in the industry, Michael has developed a masterful command of interior design—an expertise characterized by scrupulous attention to detail, a discerning eye for trendsetting style, and an unwavering commitment to client satisfaction. Each of his projects has demonstrated his talent for flawless execution. His ability to create a workplace that embodies a client’s mission fosters meaningful staff engagement and enhances business functionality. Michael particularly enjoys projects that involve branding and organizational identity and believes that perfecting these elements—recognizing them and bringing them to life in the most effective way—is imperative in creating the ultimate workplace. Guided by Michael’s leadership, his design team is efficient, forward-thinking, and proactive, always anticipating the client’s needs. His portfolio reflects versatility across a broad range of client types—corporations, associations, federal agencies, and developers, and includes such notable projects as headquarters spaces for Emergent BioSolutions, the National Association of Manufacturers, the American Wind Energy Association, GetWellNetwork, and the School Nutrition Association. Since 2008, Michael and his team have been honored with 18 industry awards, most recently for the design of the American Counseling Association Headquarters, which received the 2022 NAIOP Northern Virginia Award of Merit.

ALAN HANSEN,
FAIA, LEED
AP MANAGING DIRECTOR, ARCHITECUTRE
As a result of his 48 years of experience in the design profession, Mr. Hansen is not only a master in the field, but also a dedicated community leader and planner. When he left Washington, DC in 1987 and opened his own practice in rural—but rapidly growing—Loudoun County, Alan recognized the need for a community-centric, volunteer-based design organization, which would serve the County by offering professional planning guidance and, ultimately, foster the creation of sensibly designed, highly functional communities. Since founding the Loudoun County Design Cabinet in 2004, he has given countless hours of service to further the betterment of his community and others—a steadfast commitment for which he was honored with elevation to Fellowship within the AIA in 2013. In addition, his experience as a sole proprietor gave him the opportunity to work on several different types of projects and to acquire incisive leadership and business development expertise; this extensive knowledge base and far-reaching versatility are invaluable assets to his work at DBI. Alan also enjoys being involved in design (he is often found sketching by hand in the studio) and seeks to involve himself with projects that offer variety, engagement, and opportunities for creative growth. Viewing relationship-building as the foundation of business development, Alan maintains that the best projects are those that provide clients with skillful and appropriate design and profitable results. As they now say at the Loudoun County Department of Economic Development, “Good design is good business.”

FELIPE TURRIAGO-BORRERO MANAGING DIRECTOR, ARCHITECTURE
Having 31 years of national and international experience in the architecture industry, Felipe brings distinguished expertise and innovative vision to every project. Exemplifying forward-thinking creativity, he believes that architectural design should be an expression of the present time instead of a repetition of history for the sake of style—that each generation has the freedom to develop its own exciting and refreshing forms. As part of this pursuit, Felipe thoroughly researches his design concepts to ensure the originality of his ideas, a strength that he brings to DBI and the younger design generation. Projects that, he believes, demonstrate the successful execution of his design philosophy include the Eko Atlantic Medical Center in Lagos, Nigeria; the Gramercy District in Ashburn, Virginia; Yenagoa City Centre in Yenagoa, Nigeria; and the Intelligence Community Campus in Bethesda, MD.

04 DESIGNING A HYBRID ENVIRONMENT
If the COVID-19 pandemic has done anything, it has underscored a simple fact: Change is constant, and organizations must be capable of adapting to change, rather than just managing it. While the lockdown was ground-shaking and unsettling, the return to some sort of normalcy has proven to be even more challenging. Companies are looking for solutions that address their specific needs for their specific business models. A one-size-fits-all solution is simply not the solution.
DBI Architects has always sought to provide individual, original solutions, unique to each organization’s needs and aspirations. The present situation is no different.
In our approach to the workplace, we incorporate four pillars of design as guideposts. Those pillars are embodied in designs that are Supportive, Healthy, Smart, and Flexible.
A HYBRID
DESIGNING
Supportive: In addition to its responsibilities as a functional space for productivity and collaboration, workplaces must now also reassure us that we are in a safe and healthy environment, and entice us to rejoin a comfortable, inviting place that offers benefits that are different from the home office.
Healthy: Our global focus on health and safety will impact every aspect of workplace design, from interpersonal wellness to ecological sustainability. The existing movement toward healthy buildings and spaces will be an expectation for the next generation of employees.
Smart: Workplace infrastructure must evolve to simultaneously support connections to remote employees and flexible work styles within the office. Smart technology will integrate with personal devices to allow for intuitive, seamless control of systems.
Flexible: The workplace becomes a dynamic collection of functional spaces for collaboration, learning, company culture, and client relations. Individuals will seek the space that supports their work needs that day; from energetic shared spaces to quiet areas for focus.
HYBRID ENVIRONMENT
The workplace and work life have arguably been the most impacted aspects of life for the first part of the 2020s. Change in the workplace has been nothing short of upheaval. Remote working, flexibility within office space functions, the hybrid workplace, and now “the workplace as a destination” have become familiar terms in discussions about space needs. The level of change we have all experienced has served to identify the strengths and weaknesses of organizations – and of the organizations’ infrastructure.
Recent events have proved a salient point: Those organizations that were able to pivot and adapt to the realities were better positioned to stay above water and to ride out the wave of uncertainty that has pervaded business for these past three years. Successful organizations modified their workplans and refocused their work objectives, perhaps reconfiguring their workspaces to accommodate limited in-house presence and expanded remote working. Many discovered new efficiencies with these reconfigurations.
Now, organizations are faced with determining what will be reality, moving forward.
It’s impossible to rewind to early 2020, to just pick up where we left off. Ignoring the lessons learned and moving back to old “command and control” models will not work. To squander the lessons learned about agility and flexibility – to shuck off the things that worked during lockdown, simply to return to some mythical “business

as usual model” – would be an enormous mistake. At DBI, the path forward is to build on those lessons learned, to inform our design with the knowledge that there are different, more productive, more healthful ways to conduct business.
However, the answer is not binary. It is not a simple ‘yes or no’ proposition. The new normal presents on a scale. At one end are organizations that have found that continuing in a primarily remote work mode fits the organizational makeup perfectly. These organizations might need an office that is more of a nomadic hub, which provides conference rooms and team gathering spots to be used on a reservation basis, and where staff touches down only occasionally, reserving a space that meets their needs that particular day. Other organizations have found that a more structured environment is desirable – perhaps with different office and workstation configurations than before, that better address the adaptability and flexibility needed to respond to further shifts in the workplace. Many organizations fall somewhere on the nearly infinite range in between. And many are changing, as it becomes clearer what sort of configuration is best for them.
DBI works first to help organizations understand the parameters of that scale, and to identify where their organization fits. Addressing themes of corporate culture, desire (or need) for change, workflow, and employee engagement objectives, DBI’s designs are made to leverage every aspect of the corporate culture for the best possible outcomes.

What makes a flexible, adaptable workplace? The “new normal” will be different for every organization. Promoting productivity and teambuilding and safeguarding employee wellness continue to be priorities for employers, even if how those issues are addressed is different from business to business.
At DBI, we have adapted our solutions to achieve a more flexible space solution. DBI’s work with the American Counseling Association [ACA] serves as a timely and appropriate case study. A team led by Managing Director of Interiors, Michael Boyer, began a design process with ACA in the Fall of 2019, digging into the programming phase, identifying the needs of the client, along with the organization’s aspirational goals. However, what started out as a standard relocation project morphed significantly when COVID-19 exploded across the globe. Amid the uncertainty of a business environment that was suddenly in the throes of a deepening lockdown, ACA paused work on the project until June of 2020. During that time, like many businesses across the nation, all of ACA’s staff became remote workers.
Over the course of the six-month design hiatus, ACA’s executive team had something of an epiphany: By all standards, remote work was functioning well. Performance had not slipped, nor had quality. Staff morale was excellent, perhaps better than it had been in some time. Finally, the question became clear. Did ACA really need to rent 25,000 rsf of space?
In a group effort led by the DBI team, in what was a very unknown situation, and after much consideration, the team opted to reduce their footprint to 9,000 rsf.
This was a significant decision, not approached lightly, since an eleven-year lease was in the works – far more than a short-term reaction to what was seen as a passing calamity. The decision represented a strong commitment to the way in which ACA will conduct business for the next decade. Together, DBI and ACA rethought desking options, conference rooms, huddle rooms, and teaming rooms. Before COVID-19, the floorplan was more traditional, with about 15% given to collaborative space, leaving 85% for staff spaces (offices and workstations.) In the new plan, 50% of space is now collaborative space, with

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE:

DBI’s plan for ACA promotes the use of collaborative space, designed to give staff what that cannot get at home. The space is designed to accommodate 50% of the full staff at any given time.
AMERICAN COUNSELING ASSOCIATION STORY
ACA Workstations (rendering)
In a post-Covid environment, “the better workplace” takes into consideration factors which might once have been taken for granted. These factors include:
• The “human connection” – providing face-to-face collaboration
• Technology – connectivity and access to office equipment that might not be available remotely
• Same-room meetings – for visioning, brainstorming, creating, etc
• Amenities – Fitness rooms, lounge areas for socializing
• Catered lunches for staff
“Building the better workplace” Designing collaborative space requires a great deal of discussion with the client. It’s important to know how the space is used, but equally important to understand how else it might be used. Flexibility and adaptability are key.
At ACA, there are many different configurations, meant to address how staff needs to work on any particular day. From single seat workstations to high-capacity conference rooms, to informal areas with more relaxed seating and laptop tables, the needs that maximize productivity, teambuilding, and employee health are addressed. With nothing assigned, the space is a true hybrid workplace. Staff books whatever makes the most sense for them, given their activities for the day.

Repositioning/upgrade of a 1970s-era, 11-story, precast concrete office building. Replaced dated front façade with sleek modern design; renovated the main lobby, restrooms, and elevator lobbies; and added 3,700 SF of habitable space at the penthouse level for conference center, restrooms, wellness center, and roof terrace. New features include energy-efficient, structural silicone-glazed curtain wall system; signage and canopy for stronger street presence; and ultra-clear glass to promote visibility and create a more inviting space. Façade’s new structure, placed over three colors of glass, creates a “super grid” of alternating hues that divide planes along a cascading scale of color.

DESCRIPTION
At ACA, the workplace has been reinvented for the post-COVID world. The design of this highly adaptable and flexible hybrid workplace is 50% collaborative and 50% offices/workstations, treating the office as a “destination” for meetings and collaborative work. The fresh, new space is open and airy. Vibrant teal, deep blues, chartreuse green, and gray set off breakrooms, huddle rooms, and conference rooms, bringing a playful yet concentrated vibe to smaller areas within the larger space. Glass walls ensure that natural light from the perimeter permeates to the core. Innovative solutions were used for accent and direct lighting. All seating is comfortable and attractive, yet ergonomically designed. All desking is height adjustable, with ample built-in plugins for electronics. Desking throughout must be reserved, and lockers are provided to minimize clutter.

TESTIMONIAL
“ATCC embarked on a design of its corporate administration offices beginning November 2019. This included an open office plan, conference rooms, break areas, private offices and data center. Consistent with our company policy, the project required the cooperation of several contractors, so it was necessary to go through a rigorous, openbid process. As a result, DBI was selected as the best choice. We were particularly impressed by Michael Boyer, as he merged his modern thinking and experience with his highly functional sensitivity to the design features we were hoping to achieve in this project. These features were proposed before the challenges of a global pandemic and evolved to become what ATCC views as even better improvements to house its employees under one roof for optimal company collaboration, safety and health and wellness. Although the project is moving swiftly toward completion, we can state without any reservations that choosing DBI was the right fit for ATCC. We look forward to debuting the new face of its corporate offices for its employees, customers, partners and the Northern Virginia community.”

DESCRIPTION
Ambu, the global market leader in single-use endoscopy, including the world’s first single-use bronchoscope, the Ambu® aScopeTM, chose DBI to create their United States headquarters, in Columbia, Maryland. This hybrid office, promoting maximum flexibility, offers an abundance of huddle spaces, phone booths, and open collaborate zones , to promote collaborative teamwork. A core number of assigned offices is provided, as well as ample “nomadic” workstation seating. DBI designers worked diligently to develop a comprehensive understanding of the client’s culture, bringing the Ambu brand to the space through the use of custom graphics and coral and teal corporate colors.
A simulation lab was created as part of this “brand-forward” approach. Displaying much of Ambu’s groundbreaking technology for outpatient care, operating theater, and emergency room, the sim lab is integrated into the reception area, through a glass partition.
A very low construction cost was achieved through salvage of 80% of lighting fixtures and ceiling tiles from the original space.

TESTIMONIAL
“With our office build-out project complete, I can wholeheartedly endorse the work of DBI. Our effort presented a somewhat challenging assignment. We were shifting the team from two floors to one for better cohesion and wanted more options for collaboration with flexible workspace. While we had little change in overall footprint, we wanted to move from a very hierarchical structure to one that was a bit more dynamic, and stay LEED Gold in the process. The team—even those moving from offices to open workspace—are enjoying the outcome! The space works well for us, balancing polish and fun, and conveys the energy that we try to bring to our mission.”

DESCRIPTION
The speculative suites at 4501 N Fairfax Drive consist of 6 separate units. Designed for flexibility to allow for easy modification to combine adjacent suites or to modify for prospective tenants, full glass front-framed windows provide all users with daylight through to the core. Each suite has a dedicated conference room and coffee station, and all suites share access to the town hall amenities, including 3 conference rooms, 2 phone/ huddle rooms, a shared pantry/cafe with nitro brew coffee bar, and 2 lounges. The design concept focuses on opportunities for tenants to lease a smaller footprint suite with access to the shared amenities to provide flexibility in design while minimizing burden. The suites and amenity spaces are designed with sophistication. Clean, sleek, simple lines with pops of graphic wallcoverings bring energy and inspiration to the space.

DBI undertook several projects at 2900 Crystal Drive including the revivification of the main lobby, creation of a tenant lounge, and improvement of the building’s exterior presence to improve the experience for current tenants and to attract new tenants to the building. Just off the main lobby, an outdated 2,301-SF office space was converted into a comfortable and modern lounge for tenants. The new space features a coffee bar, flexible open seating area, arcade games, and a fireplace lounge. Open plenum ceilings and a glass entry to the lounge create a visually uninterrupted experience. A custom solid oak trellis with integral lighting acts as an anchor, creating a relaxed and cozy spot for tenants. This renovated space creates new flexible options for all tenants; whether a staff event, grabbing a cup of coffee in the morning, team collaboration through a quick game break, or conducting private meetings, the new tenant lounge is designed to fill a range of needs. The interior trellis design was carried over into the outdoor lounge space, and the mixture of high-top tables and lounge seating, string lights, and lanterns makes the building an appealing oasis along Route 1. The main lobby was expanded to 4,339 square feet, finishes were brightened and modernized featuring custom glass panels and lighting, and bar-height tables, divider panels, and live edge oak window ledges create additional flexible spaces for tenant use.

DESCRIPTION
Working with DBI Architects, insurance giant Aflac sought to liberate themselves from an existing dark, enclosed space, heavy with traditional furniture and lacking equitable access to daylight across the organization. With a goal of creating a contemporary yet timeless design that would serve them for the term of their 11-year lease, Aflac embraced an industrial vibe, featuring exposed concrete floors and metaland-glass interior office fronts. To achieve the desired aesthetic for this 5,536 square-foot office, DBI’s design team selected a neutral palette of soft whites and greys accented by warm wood tones. Then, the neutral palette was accented with Aflac’s corporate color palette – but still providing the flexibility for those accent colors to change as the brand evolves. The design of the new space focused on creating a balance of public space where Aflac can entertain clients, with private spaces for staff to conduct business. To that end, the reception area and conference room can be combined or divided with the use of a retracting glass wall, allowing the flexibility to host various sized events, delivering on a frequent need of the company. The transparency of the glass wall and the wood slat feature on the ceiling serve to connect the space, both visually and architecturally.

Using our new brand coupled with their creativity, attention to detail, project oversight, and a genuine desire to ensure our project would be exceptionally pleasing to us, Michael and Kaitlin guided us novices from start to finish. From the unique architectural design, color palettes, furniture selections and light fixtures, to the proper placement of white boards on the walls, they covered it all. Working with this team made the project less stressful because I was confident that Michael had our best interests in mind, would stay within budget, and work hard to make sure the project was delivered on time.”

DESCRIPTION
From visioning kick-off meetings to actual move-in, DBI worked with Emergent BioSolutions Inc. (EBSI) on every aspect of its new corporate headquarters. DBI successfully maintained EBSI’s high level of corporate professionalism while transforming the workspace from an enclosed, nonwindowed office into an open, collaborative, and functional environment that infused the company’s scientific brand into all aspects of the space. A 30’ x 30’ opening was created within the fifth-floor slab to allow for a twostory reception and atrium space, a feature that connects the work flow of the fourth and fifth floors via the new monumental staircase.

TESTIMONIAL
“Michael Boyer and his staff of talented architects have been a pleasure to work with during the process of relocating two of our offices at KLNB, which included the relocation of our Companies headquarters. Throughout the entire process, they managed to provide premier design services and impeccable construction coordination all while keeping our budget constraints a top priority. Moving two major offices at the same time could have easily been a very stressful and unpleasant experience. However; with Michael and his team at DBI Architects, we had the peace of mind all along that we were in great hands.”
