A Mondrian-inspired concept of interlocking cubes and planes is elegantly carried out in plan and detail in this space for a technical innovation group. Primary colors are applied boldly to carpet and drywall, with thoughtful reveals and insets holding the look together at the junctures. A main pathway leads through the design at an angle, maximizing the impact of an existing atrium without creating unused space. To reduce overall costs, designers elected to reuse 50 percent of existing carpeting and 85 percent of HVAC, lighting, sprinkler, and ceiling systems.
