Berkshire Hathaway sought to make significant changes in their office environment due to the changing nature of work, moving from traditional cubicles to a hoteling style for floating, hybrid workers, spending part of their time remote and part of their time in-office.

 

The office move was sparked in part by a need to spread out geographically to accommodate employees coming into the office from different residential locations, as well as to improve amenities and position the office as a resource and social hub.

Pivot Interiors, the firm handling furniture procurement, worked with client stakeholders and Hollander Design Group to maximize the budget and avoid sending furniture to landfill. The team chose to repurpose pieces such as height adjustable bases, monitor arms, large conference tables and various guest chairs, while working to choose new pieces that would complement the color palette and style.

Working with Pivot, Spacestor provided Palisades II, their customizable zone divider. With stone grey grid work, and shelves in cypress woodgrain, the product helps to divide space, displaying ornaments and literature, and giving area perimeters energy and character. Soft woodgrains and homely decorative items encourage a residential feel whilst maintaining brand connection and team functionality.

BHHC’s personality played into the design with lively pops of reds, blues and oranges, and highly curated art and wall graphics to reflect Bay Area culture. Views are emphasized in both offices, with city views maximized in the San Francisco location and stunning mountain views in the Walnut Creek location. Despite an overall smaller footprint per location, each space is inviting with furniture pieces intended to maximize personal customization and productivity.
