Project Profile

Wild Birds Unlimited wants to have a small office in new building in Manhattan.
This office is approximately 1400 sq Feet. As a nature shop, you will feel like you are in the center of nature. First of all, a reception area and waiting area are designed which was inspired by an egg in nest. Behind the reception area, there is a director’s office. The office room will have an executive table and an ergonomics chair for director, and two chairs for clients. In addition, there will be a small waiting area for clients as well.

A conference room for 4-6 people is adjacent from a sales area. Two side windows will bring in a lot of light from outside. The sales area is located right next to the reception area. From there, a sales person could keep watching the reception desk.

The most important thing in the project is a lot of storage space. Thus, one storage room with print station will be located between the conference room and the director’s office. On the opposite side of conference room, there will be other storage room with kitchen. A bathroom will be located near the reception area, and it will be a unisex toilet.

Every hallway and gates will be designed in Universal design dimension.
