Design Team
At the speed of a drive-through, this fast-growing, fast-moving tech company that services the restaurant industry needed to move into its new 72,000 square foot digs, six months after placing its order. “Thank you. Pull up to the second window please!” The design team was challenged not only with creating an inspiring menu of workspace experiences, but also in developing a process for quick decisions, while shopping for readily available ingredients. Selecting lighting fixtures that were modular, and simple, with short lead times and favorable price tags, was paramount. Photometrically accurate 3D modeling, employed by the lighting team, was baked into the design process early to yield realistic renderings that enabled quick decision making. All of the ingredients were lovingly combined to create a working kitchen for energizing high-tech chefs, who are coding and creating the next generation of delicious apps.
