Modus Create Offices – Reston
Architecture, Incorporated were tasked with the design for digital consulting agency, Modus Create, located in Reston, Virginia.
With the goal of creating a showcase for an innovative, entrepreneurial culture, digital design-build agency Modus Create turned to Architecture, Inc. to transform a 3,800 sf tenant suite into a flexible work environment for a decentralized global team. Moving from a bland, traditional office space, Modus Create needed a workspace that encouraged remote workers to visit the office for meetings and breakout sessions. A variety of wired seating options include stand-up desks, bench desks, counter height work tables, an open lounge, and a large conference room for product demos.
Aesthetically, the office is bright and open, with layers of materials and lighting expanding the volume of the space. Cementitious panels, exposed concrete, glass walls, and a brilliant blue tile go beyond traditional office finishes to create a unique personality that reflects the company’s client-facing culture. Carefully placed lighting fixtures help to create more intimate spaces within the overall office lighting scheme while interior walls of glass help to distribute daylight throughout.
