MWH desired a combination of closed offices and open cubicle space but wanted to avoid a traditional office feel. Their goal was to have clean lines and a contemporary aesthetic, encourage collaboration, and to showcase their branding. Our goals were to provide a fresh, unique design and a distinct experience for staff and visitors. Our client was working within a modest budget and footprint, so we were challenged to do a lot with a little.

The wood slat wall, which follows the shape of the mountain range near their Broomfield, Colorado home office, parallels the building’s exposed wind bracing to create a privacy screen between workstations and public spaces.

The few walled offices have glass fronts but an open ceiling, allowing individual focus without total disconnection.

The main conference room has a soaring ceiling and glass garage door, which promotes collaboration.
