The redesigned MC² office welcomes in a flood of natural light and collaboration with an open floor plan, design lab with resource library, and elevated look and feel reflective of their brand.
Moving from a mixed-use, predetermined facility in rural New York restricting workflow and productivity, the MC² team has successfully relocated to a Class A corporate environment in Paramus, NEW JERSEY with prime design amenities and opportunity to attract and retain top talent. Transitioning from a more private office heavy space with departments displaced amidst confined surroundings, through discovery we came to find critical adjacencies were not relating in the fashion the company and its people performed. The first step was to envision a workplace where the team could come together with ample space to collaborate and create.
A team of people that brings brands to life through temporary event spaces, we were inspired by the leadership of MC² to create a vision for their new workplace that amplifies the power and guiding light of an experience to bring brands to life. Our overarching concept became one that welcomes the creative component of their business front and center within their new environment, allows natural light and views to penetrate as far into the space as possible, and keeps the enclosed spaces far to the core. As a result, we have been able to open up the surroundings for the entire team to produce and work in a fashion that now reflects their design led mindset.
Freeing up the perimeter for the open office workstation area, while also implementing glass fronts on the more enclosed architecture, has left no corner unturned. A noteworthy feature is the soffit lid that builds from the core of the space out into the office area with contrasting carpet in accompaniment to celebrate visual interest.
Recognizing the collaborative nature of MC²’s business and work, we have built out a full resource library as well as a variety of meeting and break out spaces both private and semi-private to encourage conversation and storytelling. A now inviting café amenity situated with panoramic views while not interrupting the day-to-day workflow, the result acts as a hub for town hall meetings, gatherings, and multi-function use as needed.
“The design lab is really intended to be the heart of the design team in their new space. As a visitor entering, there’s a glimpse into their cove from the reception area and surrounding departments. Connected to the lab by a diagonal ceiling feature, we have also developed a thoughtful nook to be an amenity for all. To protect the integrity of the design vision within budget constraints, we were thrilled to partner with the creative talent of MC² as the opportunity emerged for their very own team to play a part in the design and millwork of their new space.”
