A workspace expresses who you are as a company as much as it serves as a functional place to get work done. So how do you create a space that reflects your brand?
LUNAR relocated its San Francisco headquarters to a century-old factory in the city’s design epicenter a few months ago. The move turned out to be a huge success, and our SF team now has a spectacular space that improves collaboration and productivity.
LUNAR’s new space was built in 1907 to house a cornice works and sheetmetal factory. “It’s still a factory today,” LUNAR’s John Edson says. “But it’s a creativity factory where we’re making ideas and designs and products in a warm, authentic space that very much reflects who we are as a company.”
The experience of developing the new space unearthed a few key lessons that John shares in his latest Fast Company Design blog post — express your voice, embody your values, and build a stage, not the set.
By exploring these issues through the planning, design, and build processes, you can create a unique space that is inspirational and adaptive to the needs of your brand, culture and work.
