Brand-Building Design – Inside And Out.
Our clients’ businesses are evolving. Globally recognized, respected brands including Coca-Cola, Norfolk Southern, Novelis, and Delta are becoming more holistic when considering their physical spaces. Inside, adjacencies between R&D, manufacturing, and workforce development are more integrated. Outside, facilities are icons that communicate your brand promise to the community. SSOE’s building and interior designs reflect your brand in beautiful, healthy, and functional ways that inspire pride, brand loyalty, and a sense of well-being.

Where Employees Come To Thrive.
Workplace design is more critical now than ever. From an employee’s arrival and throughout the workday, the work environment has the power to spur creativity, innovation, enthusiasm, and commitment. Alternative workplace strategies that support your culture and build in flexibility to accommodate varied uses and workstyles are essential and a means to recruit and retain the best talent. Whether incorporating amenities such as more attractive dining options, workout facilities, or, perhaps, daycare services, or bringing R&D and collaboration spaces closer to the manufacturing floor, the bottom line is design builds the workplace community. Designing workspaces should incorporate natural lighting, furnishings, and incorporating biophilia and natural materials. Creating a beautiful environment where employees will thrive is indispensable.

Breathing New Life Into Existing Facilities.
We believe in the value of a sustainable approach to managing your real estate assets and in the beauty of facilities given new life. Reimagining an existing facility for a new use— whether for a consumer-facing visitor center, a historic building that becomes a museum destination, or corporate event space—requires the designer to maintain what made the facility great in the past while modernizing it to meet the needs of today. We build in flexibility, sustainability, and the latest technology to make your reimagined facility function like new.
