Featured Projects
Building Community in the Workplace
With most clients moving to a hybrid work structure, businesses have increasingly switched to offering a variety of non-dedicated workstations. Since offices are mostly used when employees need to meet and collaborate, spaces that enable small-group gatherings and brainstorming sessions need to be provided.
Creating a social hub area of the office has become key to forming the heart of the office – a place where organizations can build relationships and culture among their employees.
”We all gained each other’s respect and understood the desire was there to have the best end product possible and as soon as we developed that belief in each other and that trust it created the opportunity to do something really great.”
Workplace Design that Recruits & Retains Talent
Technology is Changing Decision Making
Our design team’s use of photo-realistic and 3D walk-through technology helps clients visualize their choices before even lifting a hammer. Being able to experience the physical space – complete with materials, colors and layout – in advance allows clients to make changes before construction so that there are no surprises or added expenses when they move into their new office.
Personalized, Goal-Oriented Office Design
We partner with our clients to learn their businesses and their goals. This allows us to better guide clients through the design process to figure out what makes sense for how they operate, instead of following the hottest trends. Having experience across multiple markets – from technology to professional service companies to individual businesses – Shive-Hattery has seen a wide range of workplace strategies and challenges, and we know that solutions will be different for each organization.
