Inspiration and Vision
In the exploration of innovation in technology design, the NEXT team’s new office will be the embodiment of their work and principals. An open layout with transparent boundaries will lead to stronger connections, while also providing privacy and security where needed. Future forward thinking will present itself in the form of sleek and stylish interior finishes including accents of dark wood and bold metal. A deep viridian and greenery will be used throughout the space to invoke a feeling of comfort & as a nod to the culture of the surrounding Boston area. The design will be humanity centered while pushing employees to “think big and be the next”.
