Global design firm
Gensler has created an innovation hub that will promote connectivity between people in the 23,000-square-foot space it occupies at 1225 14th St.
"From the outset, our goal was to create the best place to work in Denver," says Jon Gambrill, principal and managing director at Gensler Denver. "Our entire office was fully engaged in the design process. This new space sets the new standard in Denver for a creative, collaborative work environment, enhancing our ability to innovate and deliver outstanding service to our clients."
The new Gensler office covers two floors. It has ground-level retail space to enhance connection to the Denver community. A coffee bar and cafe seating flanks the stadium staircase that's the prominent feature from the Lawrence Street entrance into the firm's lobby.
Workstations and meeting areas are flexible, and a range of space types and experiences provides a sense of creativity, connectivity and innovation.
Throughout the space, the design promotes well-being through ergonomics, acoustics, air quality and interaction with nature.
As part of the 50-year-old firm's commitment to sustainability, Gensler is pursuing LEED Gold certification for the space. Some of the key sustainable features include LED lighting with motion sensors, low-emitting materials, energy- and water-saving equipment and interior plantscaping.
