A New Office Experience
Offices are taking cues from hotels and homes to create more welcoming, experience-led environments. Plants, green walls, natural materials, warm lighting, and comfortable furniture inspire creativity. These are just some of the many considerations shaping the office experience of today and tomorrow. These ideas inspired Google Fiber's new headquarters in Lakewood, Colorado.

​

A Colorado Touch
The 13,000-square-foot offices, designed by Stantec Architects, took 6 months to build out at a budget of $3 million. The scope of work included offices, common workspaces, conference and training rooms, and employee break areas. A key design objective was to create an engaging and distinctive space that would reinforce a commitment to their employees well being. And to incorporate a Colorado feel that would complement Google Fiber's branding.

​

Exceeding Expectations
Flexibility and collaboration were instrumental in the project's success. The Design Team particularly appreciated PMG's willingness to make changes on the fly without impacting the overall schedule. Weekly Owner-Architect-Contractor (OAC) meetings, progress photos and documentation, and weekly updates on material procurement kept the project on track. PMG even secured a Certificate of Occupancy (TOC) to allow Google Fiber to occupy the space in advance of outstanding long-lead finish items.

"The experience working with PMG was very positive. Our team has already discussed including them in future projects. I feel confident they would provide the same collaborative, communicative, hard working team and quality of work."
