Eighteen private offices are located along the inside wall and feature sidelights for daylight access. Two blocks of full-height offices float in each of the office's two sides. This configuration breaks up the space's linear nature and allows the open offices to be grouped along the outside wall. While open office cubicles were a lighting necessity, the company also wanted open office users to have a sense of privacy. Holscher explains that TRO chose a Teknion system because it featured a translucent sliding privacy door.
Employees can close the door when they desire a physical separation from the rest of the space.
Although full acoustical privacy is not provided, the ability to create the feeling of a closed work environment is very appreciated. A black rail at desktop height houses all electrical cabling, which enables the facility staff to work on this component from the outside without disturbing the office's occupant. Also, rather than cluttering the limited office space with a guest chair, a mobile filing cabinet with a cushion top serves the dual purpose of extra storage and visitor seating. This office's kitchen is a multi-purpose space used not only for dining, but also for meetings, training and just relaxing and having fun. Furthermore, the floor's light versus dark tile pattern creates a visual break between the dining portion of the room and a casual game area also located in the space.
