Project Information
6-story, 240 KSF facility. The new corporate headquarters resolved a need to refresh a brand and culture, increase collaboration, and create a sustainable environment. The neutral palette echoes the natural surroundings of nearby Mt. Diablo, with earthy tones that reflect native grasses, oak trees, and other local vegetation. All six floors connect with a grand, skylit central staircase, designed to encourage employees to utilize this centerpiece as the primary vertical circulation method. Multi-purpose conference and training rooms, breakout areas with coffee bars, and an indoor/outdoor cafe provide space for a variety of collaborative opportunities.
