THE XO GROUP (formerly The Knot) HEADQUARTER

This project was a consolidation of multiple offices into one 65,000 square foot headquarters location.  Previously, divisions had been constricted in individual, exterior private offices with internal workstations for the majority of employees.  During the design phase, TEK Architects developed an office infrastructure that promotes internal collaboration and maximizes daylight. Through the development of an internal office core, with surrounding open plan workstations, TEK Architects inverted their former layout establishing a collaborative and open space.  The use of bright color, bamboo, and glass transparencies gives the space an integrated and holistic feel.  The clean lines and glass fronts optimize the use of their real estate providing The Knot with a spirited and inspiring work environment.
