Client Requests & Objectives
ILF is a global company with 16 offices worldwide. They have the resources to represent big corporations, but have chosen to work with smaller companies.
Provide overall flexibility to allow for future growth, but specifically requested modularity on the first level for co-working/event space.
SoMa’s demographics are dominated by young start-up/tech companies, which is ILF’s target audience.
Consider the generation gap in ILF’s employees and accommodate for different personality/working types.
Two main connection points between the culture of ILF and their clients: Humility & Confidence.
Incorporate glass throughout for transparency and light filtration but maintain private areas for client confidentiality.
THE CONCEPT
NOISE LEVEL DIAGRAM
Celebrating Contrast & Balancing Two Extremes
LOW | Focus
MEDIUM | Share
HIGH | Social
All companies must have the confidence to start a business, but also must be humble enough to realize that they will need help. Humility and confidence may be two extremes, but they are essential to success. We have identified five pairs of extremes that are important to ILF’s culture and their new office.
