A Workplace That Puts People First
A new Calgary office designed to enhance well-being, reduce stress, and elevates daily performance.
Client: Connor Clark & Lunn Calgary
Workplace Strategy & Tenant Improvement
Location: 8th Ave. Place
Connor Clark & Lunn required a workplace that reflected their professionalism, supported performance, and aligned with long-term business priorities.
The objective was not cosmetic change, but a considered environment that would enhance client perception, improve staff experience, and remain relevant as the firm evolved.
The intent was to deliver a refined, high-performing workplace aligned with the firm’s culture, operational needs, and future growth.
Project Intent
The strategy focused on decisions with measurable impact:
Organizing space to clearly distinguish client-facing, collaborative, and focused work zones
Integrating biophilic elements to support well-being and cognitive performance
Prioritizing acoustic comfort and lighting quality
Selecting durable, timeless materials to support longevity and reduce lifecycle costs
Designing flexible environments capable of adapting over time
All design decisions were evaluated against operational effectiveness, long-term value, and business alignment.
Design Strategy
The completed workplace now functions as a business asset rather than simply an interior.
A professional environment aligned with the firm’s market positioning
Improved staff experience and workplace functionality
A stronger, more cohesive client experience
A layout capable of adapting to changing organizational needs
The project demonstrates how strategic interior architecture can directly support performance, perception, and long-term resilience.
