Twelve perimeter rooms, three conference areas, and over two dozen workstation seats make this full-floor layout ideal for teams that need a polished presence with private meeting zones and collaborative density. Currently configured for creative or professional use, the space also includes an open kitchen, lounge zones, and an expansive open area that can support various workstation layouts depending on growth or team structure. Exceptional ceiling height and natural light on three sides elevate the entire floorplan into a refined and functional environment suited for both client-facing and production-based workstyles.

Inside the space, bright natural light floods through oversized, loft-style windows that wrap three sides of the floor, ensuring excellent daylight across nearly every corner of the interior. The front of the layout opens into a gracious reception and waiting area, defined by polished wood floors, coffered ceilings, and refined lighting fixtures that lend a clean and creative tone throughout. Just beyond, several glass-fronted perimeter rooms function well as private offices, executive spaces, or internal meeting rooms, offering privacy without cutting off the energy of the open floor.

Along the central spine of the layout, multiple mid-sized enclosed rooms serve as dedicated conference spaces with seating for six to ten people, and at least one includes integrated AV, ideal for presentations or client calls. The core of the floor is reserved for an expansive open area that currently supports roughly thirty workstations with ample room for additional density or flexible breakout zones. At the rear, a fully built kitchenette and pantry area includes modern cabinetry, stainless appliances, and casual seating that blends seamlessly with a lounge-style break area. The overall effect is one of clean lines, warmth, and light—designed for companies that need a polished, branded, and highly usable layout in a central and prestigious location.

The current configuration makes use of high ceilings and an airy, post-industrial aesthetic, while blending functional density with private meeting zones and branding potential.
