Friendshop Edit

Murdock Solon Architects worked with the sound and video editing studio, Friendshop, to develop its new office space. The priority was to maximize the small amount of natural light available, as well as to work within the 10-foot-ceiling space. The low height required creativity to not only manage mechanical, plumbing, and electrical needs, but also the technical cables required for their production.

With a rectangular floor plan, MSA designed private office spaces along the perimeter with centralized communal spaces. The private offices were lined with glass walls to bring natural light to the center space. Custom white lacquered shelves were added for the display of each editor's individuality, as well as to add additional privacy.

The central shared space utilizes eclectic mid-century modern furniture to divide the space, and a large kitchen island doubles as an informal conference table. A curved wall constructed of walnut louvers lit from behind further divides space while adding to the overall aesthetic.
