Lobby The design of an agency’s lobby or reception space creates a lasting first impression. It should embody the agency’s mission and create an appropriate impression. Whether the main building entrance arrival lobby or a dedicated suite foyer, it is space where visitors, employees and users often have the time to observe and absorb the environment around them. And the lobby and entrace spaces also often incorporate important functions elements such as security vestibles, elevator bays, and circulation corridors, all of which need to reflect the right mix of design and function.

Formal Collaboration Formal collaboration spaces are an integral component in workplace design. As private offices move towards either a smaller footprint or even an open area format, having the right size and quantity of formal meeting space is critical to creating a great workspace. Integrated technology and room flexibility are both key components to assuring maximum use with a multitude of functions.

Informal Collaboration The advent of technology and social media has given birth to a spirit of universal collaboration. We live in a world that relies on collective problem-solving which speeds up innovation and productivity. Collaboration spaces encourage teams to work across silos. While individual spaces are shrinking in size, these are usually offset with neighborhood meeting zones. These teaming areas are located throughout the floors with access to advanced collaboration devices, conferencing and information-sharing technology.

Linkage The spaces in between here and there provide connections between people as well as places. Corridors become impromptu meeting rooms, a walk way with views to outside and ample daylight provides a break from work at the desk to take a personal cell phone call. Through visual cues and skillful planning, these spaces reinforce the visual identity of a company, while orienting users in the larger context of our interior environment and guiding our path.

Open Offices To optimize one’s performance, individuals need spaces that allow for focused work and uninterrupted thinking. The design of effective office spaces – enclosed or open – begins with appropriate programming of size, flow and layout and then takes into account ergonomics, technology, acoustics, privacy, storage, visual access to daylight, lighting and thermal comfort.

Amenities From grabbing a cup of coffee to a private area for nursing mothers, amenities are taking center stage in workplace design. A well designed coffee bar with a mix of informal seating areas and tables can easily crossover to collaboration space or a touchdown area for visitors and clients. Meditation rooms can help employees with information overload and provide the space for big ideas to percolate. Keeping employees healthy, happy and actively engaged without having to leave the office not only improves production but the bottom dollar as well.

Specialty Spaces In addition to tradition office and working space, many workplaces have a variety of complex and specialized environments that are critical to the function of work. Data centers, laboratory and research space, archival facilities, breakout spaces, and multi-purpose training and conferencing facilities are often incorporated into today’s work environments. In addition, specialty spaces such as sensitive compartmentalized information facilities (SCIF) are required by some users for certain types of work. Locating these specialty spaces adjacent to workspaces allows for better collaboration and communication among the various functional spaces. Our experience in designing all of the work environments allows us to understand how to plan environments that function best for the users.

Infrastructure Spaces Although sometimes referred to as off-stage or back-of-house areas, support spaces typically contain the brain and the pulse of the company. These are functional areas like Work/Copy Rooms, File Storage, Loading Docks, Server and MDF Rooms and Supply Storage, all of which have specific infrastructure requirements pertaining to HVAC, power, information technology, security, acoustics and furnishings. Careful attention to the quantity and location of these spaces promotes efficiency and increase worker productivity.

Facility Assessments Page has developed a mission-centric capital renewal planning approach using a framework we call Facility Quality Initiatives (FQI) that incorporates a range of assessments, and works within the policies and parameters of the Pricing Desk Guide 5th Edition, particularly as related to tenant improvements. Using available lenses through which to view the operation and maintenance of existing buildings, FQI crafts a framework using a single or multiple assessments that produce findings which become the basis for planning recommendations. Page consistently brings creative thinking, smart strategies, and seasoned experience, considering long-term life cycle costs, to maximize investment strategies. Our capital renewal planners and assessment specialists are well versed in the full array of existing building deficiencies, an understanding of operations and maintenance management techniques, the ability to discover patterns in computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS) and industry preventative maintenance cycles and deliver “highest and best use” recommendations ready for prioritization inside of the larger capital improvement framework. Similarly, as an industry leader in interior architecture and design, Page brings the depth of knowledge and skills necessary to observe, document, and develop guidance that is actionable. Simply stated, we blend data analytics with proven strategies to identify opportunities, provide benchmarking using reliable scoring, and recommend improvements. Page crafts a decision-making framework for selecting projects or initiatives that improve facility quality whether the deficiency is due to condition, energy inefficiency, inability to meet the needs of the program or personnel, over/under utilization, or other identified insufficiencies. Equipped with this analysis and professional recommendations, our team is furnished with the information necessary to craft pathways to reinvestment, renewal, adaptation, or retirement of assets.

Condition Objective is to gain a picture of the health of a building’s systems and components. During observational assessment, deficiencies are identified, documented, and recommendations quantified. Decisions Supported: Budgeting/Capital improvement lists and a proactive approach to renewal. Suitability Objective is to identify what enhancements are needed to make the building more programmatically user-centric. Space quality characteristics are collected, analyzed, and aligned with the activity and users of the space. Decisions Supported: Alteration of facility characteristics to improve functionality. Capacity/Utilization Objective is to collect the baseline data necessary for effective space management. Space is analyzed based upon quantity, size, and usage to identify any surplus/need for the study timeframe. Decisions Supported: Adjustments to space assignments and realignment of space resources.
Decarbonization/Energy Objective is to focus on operational improvements that reduce energy / carbon. Facilities or components that could be optimized are identified and aligned with renewal policies that support reduction in greenhouse gas emissions or consumption. Decisions Supported: Alterations to equipment or practices that advance goals. Wellness Objective is to promote wellness by analyzing the facility’s impact on the occupants. Assessment is designed to establish performance criteria and allow for structured monitoring and verification. Decisions Supported: Occupant satisfaction and ongoing program tracking and effectiveness. Resiliency Objective is to align potential risk categories and mitigation measures. During observational assessment, physical vulnerabilities are defined and the impact on facility operations and occupants is identified. Decisions Supported: Modifications to design, operation, or staffing policies with potential actions during an event.
