This joint effort between Gensler and Empire Office epitomizes the power of collaboration between designer and dealer, showcasing seamless execution and innovative solutions. With a goal to ignite inspiration and creativity, Gensler designed their own space in Midtown Atlanta to be an energetic destination and came to Empire to help bring their vision to reality.

Featured areas highlight Atlanta’s southern hospitality, with an outdoor terrace, a vibrant artwork & design lab, and diverse collaboration areas, which provide a variety of spaces for creative outlet for the team. Carefully curated products are interwoven throughout the floor plan from various vendor partners, including Andreu World, Blu Dot, Coalesse, HBF, Steelcase, & West Elm. With meticulous planning, effective communication, and transparent decision-making, this project illustrates how a strong relationship can elevate commercial design to new heights while activating brand experiences within a physical space.

Empire Office, in collaboration with HuntonBrady, outfitted Fountain Life’s new Corporate HQ in the medical haven of Lake Nona, Florida. Having previously worked with Steelcase for their South Florida office, the company turned to Empire for expertise in both Steelcase and other manufacturers to keep budgetary and timeline restrictions in mind.

A cool palette of dark navy, silvers, and brighter whites were selected to contrast the colder feel of their previous space. This palette complimented the state-of-the-art workspace which includes sophisticated fixtures and floor-to-ceiling windows. The chosen lines included AMQ for systems, and Blu Dot, Steelcase, West Elm Work, JSI, and Orangebox for ancillary pieces in areas such as the café and podcast room to ensure a blend of high-end finishes and cost-conscious seating.

Neocis, a leading medical equipment manufacturer, collaborated with Empire Office and Gensler to establish a cutting-edge workspace in Wynwood, Miami. The goal was to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing environment to enhance productivity. Flipping the specifications was a key factor in this project, as many of our alternative solutions were chosen to accommodate budgetary restraints. This project also incorporated 120-degree height-adjustable workstations within designated carpet islands, per the design intent from Gensler.

This project utilized manufacturers such as AMQ systems, Global conference tables, Geiger conference seating, and KI & Gus* cafe seating. Muraflex architectural wall solutions enhanced and complemented the overall design. Empire was able to meet both budgetary constraints and stringent timelines with our expert product knowledge, phased approach and proven best practices.

Together with Newmark and ASD l SKY, we created a beautiful space for the flagship Atlanta office of Fisher Phillips. This prestigious law firm wanted to bring its updated furniture standards to life within its workspace, setting the blueprint for its other locations nationwide.

Steelcase Elective Elements, Currency and Ology private offices, and Answer Beam with Migration workstations form the foundation that seamlessly blends with ancillary furniture from OFS, National, Blu Dot, and West Elm, as well as a custom reception desk and a 240-inch Corian conference table.

To meet the needs of a post-pandemic workplace, we helped Fisher Phillips make certain adjustments to their workspace plan. A previously slated research room became a Zoom Room for hybrid collaboration, and interactive video conferencing technology was installed to accommodate both virtual and physical depositions. The space also boasts open collaboration areas as well as flex offices to accommodate a variety of needs.

Drawing inspiration from the history and founders of the 116-year-old company, this confidential wealth management firm partnered with Empire Office and Perkins + Will to create a first-class, sophisticated workspace.

Entrusting our teams to produce a functional and high-end environment for employees, clients, and financial experts, we sourced and specified products from over 40 manufacturers to fill the abundant space. Occupying the top seven floors of the Midtown Manhattan building spread across 225,000 square feet; amenities include a library, study room, and cafeteria, as well as two conferencing floors and additional collaborative zones that feature soft seating, credenzas, custom glass and stone top tables, and other ancillary pieces from Bernhardt, Davis, Gunlocke, Nucraft, Stylex, Wallgoldfinger, and others. The Empire team delivered & installed 268 Halcon private offices and 263 custom Innovant workstations.

The resulting space is a premier, luxury work setting that will serve its people and purpose long into the future.

Empire Office collaborated with design firm MKDA on the new state-of-the-art office space for the notable non-profit client, Central Park Conservancy (CPC).

Upon entry, an open floor plan paired with biophilic design and large-scale park murals immediately greets guests. It reflects the client’s vision for creating a sanctuary and centralized location for employee collaboration while paying homage to the park’s natural beauty and scenery. Additional gathering areas include a conference center, huddle rooms, a full cafe, and touchdown spaces.

Throughout all project phases, MKDA and the Empire team prioritized wellness initiatives by selecting products composed of eco-friendly materials to achieve LEED certification. The Empire team led the procurement, delivery, and installation of all products and worked one-on-one with the client to manage a tight timeframe and drive cost savings.

Empire Office collaborated with the Miami-based team at OTJ Architects in the 20,000 square foot space for the national non-profit arts and journalism organization, the Knight Foundation. Empire procured, delivered, and installed the workstations, glass walls, seating, and casegoods in the thoughtfully designed office located in the heart of Coconut Grove, Miami. The space was primarily outfitted with Steelcase, while using a handful of other manufacturers such as Bernhardt and Stylex for casegoods.

This project was centered around the client’s priority of ergonomics. Keeping in mind the open plan and clean aesthetic, a significant amount of glass paneling and walls were utilized. The glass walls were intentionally positioned to showcase the client’s large, colorfully curated art collection that was arranged throughout the space.

This confidential national homebuilding company partnered with IA Interior Architects Miami and Empire Office to design their new headquarters in Miami, FL. Empire procured, delivered and installed the ancillary furniture for the high-end workplace, which encompasses over 125,000 SF and spans five floors.

Furniture from manufacturers such as Andreu World, Bernhardt, Davis, and Steelcase were chosen to complement the upscale materials utilized in the build and achieve the desired luxe aesthetic. Numerous conference rooms, collaborative areas, and lounges are located throughout each floor to promote connectivity amongst employees. Office amenities include executive dining spaces and a full cafe that are brought to life with biophilic details. Additionally, Empire engaged custom millwork and furniture provider, Fabricate to design u-shaped sofas for the training and synergetic areas to enhance collaboration.

In collaboration with design firm BDG, Empire Office procured, delivered, and installed over ten floors of furniture for the multi-national advertising agency WPP.

Located in downtown Detroit, the historical structure of the building set a unique backdrop for various ancillary and private office solutions. Specified product was sourced from manufacturers such as Arper, Blu Dot, Gubi, Muuto, Viccarbe, and West Elm, to name a few. Our creative team worked closely with the client to provide options that met their aesthetic, style, budget, and delivery deadlines.

Other distinguishing features within the 150,000-square-foot space include a full café, gaming corner, open collaboration areas, private meeting nooks, exposed brick walls, original arched windows, vibrant murals, and custom credenzas created in-house. All parties were ecstatic with the result—a refreshed, mixed-use space providing ample room for creative liberty and innovative ideas.

Empire Office partnered with design firm A+I to deliver a high-end office experience for this growing financial firm. We assisted with the procurement, delivery, and installation services for all workstations, private offices, ancillary, and custom banquettes & wardrobes produced in-house through Fabricate.

The result for this client was a cost-effective solution that reflects a sophisticated, airy, and resimercial office space for all employees and visiting partners.
