A corporate office with a view, natural lighting and open sightlines creates an enjoyable space
First impressions were key when designing this customer service floor of OtterBox at 315 West Oak. Upon entering the 6th floor of this newly renovated office, you are no longer welcomed by a maze of dark, narrow hallways and closed off views to the exterior. You are welcomed by an open space featuring a coffee bar, casual seating and a variety of meeting rooms. New architectural details and lighting bring attention to what was once a basic ceiling grid with fluorescent light fixtures. Throughout the entire space you are greeted with unique features that pay homage to the Otterbox Headquarters, yet develop an identity for this space as a separate entity. An important element in the design of this space was flexibility for a fast changing company, and this was achieved while allowing open access to the gorgeous views outside.
