Pivot Design

Chicago, Illinois
11,000 square feet

Pivot Design is a creative agency that generates award-winning branding, marketing and advertising for leading organizations around the globe. Eastlake Studio designed a workplace that captures the vision of Pivot Design's forward-looking leadership. The clean, rectangular plan employs a simple circulation spine to tie elements of the space together. Polished concrete floors and exposed structural elements give the space a raw edge, while crisply detailed solid and glazed partitions dress up public areas of the space. A neutral palette allows work products to be the hero. Grey marble elements add a subtle richness, while quiet artificial lighting provides dramatic flourishes at key elements.
