PDO designed a refined and welcoming new office space for Crest Insurance Group, a leading insurance agency in the Southwest. Reminiscent of a luxury hospitality space, the client-driven areas are designed to communicate a sense of comfort and trust, and reinforce the agency’s commitment to professionalism and a feeling of security. PDO used warm tones and high quality materials to create a sophisticated space, with high contrast finishes providing elegant drama.

It was crucial to also provide a sense of belonging and comfort for Crest employees as well as creating a space that fosters smooth and efficient operations. The result is an office that feels as much like a social club as it does a collaborative workspace, with an engaging and dynamic feel and instagrammable moments. PDO also balanced the need for privacy in an open office, providing areas of enclosure and limiting sound transfer to support a feeling of comfort and trust.

PDO successfully created a space that reinforces Crest’s high-end yet approachable culture, where both clients and employees feel valued and secure.

PDO used decorative acoustical lighting throughout the space to create accent locations and ground collaborative areas.
The Crest break room feels like a high-end lounge, with a variety of seating and lounging configurations, elegant materials, and a striking view.
The atrium room, with a vintage mural and more saturated palette, opens to an outdoor rooftop space.
