Confidential Client

Corporate Interiors | 65,000 SF

Traditional detailing takes a contemporary turn in this three-floor corporate office. S. Tipton Studio selected finishes and specified furniture throughout the 65,000-square-foot space, pairing rich wood tones and tailored upholstery with softer, curved forms. The design reflects the client’s preference for an established, understated aesthetic, with details that quietly connect the interiors to its business.

Raised inner panels framed by reveals give traditional wall paneling a contemporary update. Rounded workstation screens, curved booth details and softened conference table edges take their cues from coins — a subtle reference that becomes a focal point in the lobby’s illuminated coin ceiling. Brass and dark bronze accents carry that connection throughout the office.

Glass partitions connect offices and meeting rooms, bringing daylight deeper into the interior. In private offices, hand-dyed carpet tiles add subtle variation, with no two tiles exactly alike. Over the open workspace, suspended felt coffers reinterpret a traditional coffered ceiling. Exposed building components within the coffers were painted to match, helping them blend into the ceiling, while flush linear lights fit neatly between the rows.

Shared spaces give employees places to meet, take a break or change their setting. A two-sided lounge sofa and a meeting table with a concealed pop-up TV make room for the marketing team to collaborate outside the conference room. In the break room, upholstered booths, lounge seating and shared tables offer spots to catch up with coworkers or settle in for lunch. Curved white architectural elements and slender pendants define the booths, while durable, cleanable finishes stand up to daily use.
