In the heart of Grand Rapids, Michigan, we led the interior design of a renovated seven-floor interdisciplinary office building, working in collaboration with AMDG Architects. The building is a family office, with numerous branches of the company’s business brought together under one roof. Our goal was to build a workplace for the next generation of leaders, while preserving the organization’s legacy.
Throughout the exterior and interior design, there are connections to Michigan and to the organization’s history, utilizing local materials and highly branded features. The central challenge of this project was planning a cohesive design that appropriately balanced the history and legacy of the founders, while also embracing the future and its new generation of leaders. In addition, our team had to carefully consider the day-to-day needs of each individual department, and strengthen the overarching culture through connective gestures. Leaning into modern, the transitional design was focused on executive-level sophistication, but it also integrated functional and aesthetic elements that appeal to younger generations.
