Start-up Architecture

Lately we’ve been working on a new interior architecture package for a social media start-up company here in Seattle. It’s been a ton of fun because the program calls for problem solving that’s in our skill set, yet the nature of the project is different enough to make it challenging. In addition to a range of programmatic office related functions, the design extends to some cool territory. For instance, making the space visually stimulating enough to attract new recruits, keeping a tribe of sharp-shooting programmer types inspired, and giving individuals the physical means to creatively express their personalities and what they do. Overall, a pretty dang cool project. Throw in a clever CEO willing to take some design risks and team BUILD is off to the races.
