Turning a headquarters expansion into common ground.
For our confidential oil & gas client in Denver, we were asked to create a workplace that connected corporate leadership with the engineers, technical specialists and field personnel powering the business every day.
Through workplace strategy and design, we transformed a neighbouring building into a unifying environment that feels authentic, inclusive and deeply connected to the realities of the industry.
Rather than replicating the existing headquarters, we developed a 'raw and refined' design language that balances industrial authenticity with a sophisticated workplace experience.
Field-inspired artwork, behaviour-driven planning and carefully considered social spaces help bridge the gap between corporate and operational teams, creating a workplace where everyone can see themselves reflected.
The success of the workplace can be seen not only in how people use it, but also in the performance metrics achieved throughout design and construction:
✔ LEED Silver certification
✔ 90%+ low/no-VOC finishes
✔ 51% construction waste diversion
✔ 40% lower lighting power than ASHRAE standards
