AMERICAN COUNSELING ASSOCIATION

At ACA, the workplace has been reinvented for the post-COVID world. The design of this highly adaptable and flexible hybrid workplace is 50% collaborative and 50% offices/workstations, treating the office as a “destination” for meetings and collaborative work. The fresh, new space is open and airy. Vibrant teal, deep blues, chartreuse green, and gray set off breakrooms, huddle rooms, and conference rooms, bringing a playful yet concentrated vibe to smaller areas within the larger space. Glass walls ensure that natural light from the perimeter permeates to the core. Innovative solutions were used for accent and direct lighting. All seating is comfortable and attractive, yet ergonomically designed. All desking is height adjustable, with ample built-in plugins for electronics. Desking throughout must be reserved, and lockers are provided to minimize clutter.
