5. CONCEPT:
Direction
STATEMENT:
Being guided or managed to move with
confidence on your journey.
DESIGN STATEMENT:
The San Francisco office will enthusiastically
embrace the concept of direction in their new
home by creating an overall sense of flow. Open
communication will be encouraged in each
respective department through the use of an
open layout.
This office will be implementing sustainability in
their design to relay to their clientele that they not
only care about the journeys we are all on and the
quality of them - but that they also value the earth
that we are each experiencing these journeys on.

For the company branding, a compass was
used which felt like a natural extension from the
concept of direction.
When space planning, a radial design was
adopted and applied.

LOBBY & RECEPTION
Bowsprit Advertising Agency
Bowsprit is an advertising agency whose main office is located
in New York City. They are looking to open a sister location in
the San Francisco Bay area.
The project requirements were to implement a sustainable
design initiative, an open office plan to support creativity and
interaction, and to allow those passing by outside to have the
ability to peek into the office so that they may get a glance of
the creative process.
The concept of direction is seen in elements such as curved
walls, the placement of light fixtures in reception and in hanging
wood panels that have a wave like flow to them.
There is an underlying sense of movement that is seen
throughout the design which ties into the concept well.

The lobby is separate from the reception area in
this office, but aspects of the office design flow
into it. A custom light fixture was created for this
area and was inspired by the lines connecting a
boat to its bowsprit.
7. LARGE CONFERENCE ROOM
CUSTOM CONFERENCE ROOM TABLE

Reception relays the concept of direction with clever light fixtures that
act as subtle guides into the office and with a recycled glass structure
behind the front desk that is inspired by the shape of a wave crashing.
The large conference room was designed to have the
effect of being under water. The light fixture above the
conference room table promotes this as it is an abstraction
of a school of fish in motion.
8. BREAK ROOMPRIVATE OFFICE
Bowsprit Advertising Agency
12
Private offices are creative areas that reinforce to
those working, collaborating or meeting in them
that this agency is forward thinking and is unique in
their approach to assisting their clients in reaching
their goals.
The break room has ombre
painted reclaimed wood walls.
The ombre is a sunwashed
yellow which is symbolic of
permanence and something
that has weathered the test of
time.
9. Joseph & Denise Stradtham are relocating back to Western
New York from Northern California. They have purchased
