Grant Thornton
The design of the new Grant Thornton office premises celebrates a new location, at the iconic downtown intersection of Portage Ave and Main Street in the heart of Winnipeg. Tasked with aiding in programming and site selection due to an upcoming lease renewal and staff expansion, our office oversaw the transition from a suburban location to a 14,445 sq.ft. space tailored to accommodate client interactions and employee needs alike. The new program included a client-focused reception space, private offices, open and hoteling workstations, meeting rooms, quiet focus rooms, and a large welcoming café space for staff gatherings. Inspired by the downtown locale, frosted film and acoustic panel patterns mirror the cityscape, complimented by custom murals depicting historical photographs of the famous intersection outside.
Natural wood tones, biophilic elements, and acoustic paneling provide warmth and comfort throughout the space, balanced with various shades of purple referencing the company branding and culture.
