Rising Pharmaceuticals Offices – Saddle Brook
Avison Young has designed the offices for Rising Pharmaceuticals located in Saddle Brook, New Jersey.
An elite office space is born from a flex industrial building. The redesigned Rising Pharmaceuticals, Inc. office space has completely changed the appearance of its company and parent company Aceto.
Comfortably situated in Park 80 West, the 5-star service provided gives employees an ideal experience. This includes an on-site gym, café, massage and yoga trainer, dry-cleaning services, food trucks, a variety of cuisine supplied weekly, and beautiful conference center. Not only is the open and collaborative environment an exceptional transition from what the team had been familiar with prior, the redesigned space has also allowed for comfort and increased opportunities for employee engagement.
The existing space was large but quite enclosed, which lent itself to constriction. Rising Pharmaceuticals, Inc. identified that they needed better flow and increased collaboration than their current office architecture had limited them to. Our first recommendation was to move toward a more open floor plan, bringing teams together and improving movement.
Before the move, their space was very dark. Executive offices lined the perimeter, preventing light from shining into more central parts of the space. After opening the floor plan, everything was taken off the walls, moving most offices away from the windows and into the center of the space. With the windows exposed, light pours into the space, even into the offices and conference rooms which are enclosed in transparent, full-height glass.
