Designed by KEM STUDIO, the Creative One office celebrates their distinct business model by focusing on two primary experiences: growing their team and showcasing their client engagement process. These functions are tied together with a clean, sophisticated material palette that uses contrast to focus attention on important client touch-points, creates opportunities for social engagement, and celebrating unique and unexpected elements throughout the space.

What is special about CreativeOne's reception area?
The sense of arrival occurs as soon as the elevator doors open – both clients and employees are greeted by a custom reception desk and curated lobby, a metaphorical handshake.

How does CreativeOne's office showcase clients and business partners?
Corridors showcasing a custom walnut ceiling and built-in casework contain nearly three-hundred backlit laser-etched portraits of clients and business partners, defining the core of the open office space and celebrating competition, success, and mentorship . Seen from almost all areas of the office, the display emanates warmth and creates visual interest and hierarchy.

Tell me more about the baffle solution used throughout Creative One. Designed by KEM STUDIO for Loftwall, Tempo is a modular wall and ceiling baffle system that improves acoustics but also functions as art in residential and commercial interiors. Tempo turns down the volume, with style.
