CI Group Showroom – Orlando
Little Diversified Architectural Consulting designed the CI Group Showroom in Orlando to embody innovation and community, balancing product showcase with collaborative spaces that reflect the company’s evolving culture and commitment to design excellence.
Establishing a distinct presence in a competitive and established market, CI Group set out to create a workplace that not only attracts top talent but also reflects its evolving company culture. Their vision extended beyond functionality—they sought to craft a space that showcases their products and services while fostering meaningful connections with clients and the broader design community.
The design team embraced this challenge by thoughtfully layering the space from the arrival experience to the private workspace. Upon entry, visitors are welcomed into an open lounge and café, which serves as both a communal gathering point and a buffer to more focused work areas. Demountable glass partitions create visual transparency, offering glimpses into CI Group’s full product offerings and day-to-day work environment, while still providing the privacy essential to a productive office setting.
An exposed ceiling introduces an industrial edge, underscoring the showroom’s unique aesthetic and CI Group’s product capabilities. Acoustic solutions were carefully integrated to ensure optimal sound quality, allowing the open space to remain comfortable and focused. More than just a showroom, this space serves as a living embodiment of CI Group’s commitment to innovation, functionality, and human-centered design.
Economically, the expansion has revitalized a once-vacant office space in downtown Orlando, transforming it into a vibrant hub that has created new full-time jobs and contributes meaningfully to the city’s growth.
In every dimension—from spatial experience to social engagement, CI Group’s new space stands as a testament to their vision, values, and ongoing investment in people, design, and community.
