Cool, curvy lines and a sophisticated marine color palate create the perfect mix for this sophisticated North American Headquarters for a marine sciences company. A Marine Science chose Infinity Group for the strategy, design, architecture, engineering, and construction of their new United States location in Austin, Texas. The company uses robots to gather information from the ocean and seabed. They had originally found space that had a conservative office layout. But the company was also considering a second space that had big windows that were more conducive to a healthy work environment for all. Infinity Group worked with the management team to understand the company’s goals and how a new space could serve them better. Our team recommended the second location and carried the project through to delivery. Our design team added plants and green wall panels to spaces throughout the office. The company also wanted to use as many sustainable materials and finishes as possible. The client chose carpet made with recycled content. Also, the acoustical panels are made from recycled plastic bottles. A convertible cafe area, lounge, conference rooms, and a welcoming lobby compliment the strategically placed workstations for quieter work.

“They wanted a design that would complement their offices in England with a distinctly American flair and sensibility,” said Laura Tremko, Infinity Group Director of Design.
