b4 and after: january

We stayed busy working on lots of office interiors in 2017. Each office is tailored to the unique style of the business and brand. 

I'll try to post a few 'before and afters' here each month.

Some are remodels and others are new build-outs.  Thanks to all of our great clients past, present, and future... we will continue to create many more custom-designed interiors in 2018!

Before:

 After:

Sienna Lynn Studio designed a new shared office space for two businesses.

The space features customized private offices based on individual needs, a new conference room, and a reception with beverage area.

Original modern art throughout is bright and bold against the light walls.

coffee house event center

It was such a pleasure to design the coffee house event center for Mugshots Coffee Company. Working with the owner and general manager to capture the dream and vision was a great experience every step of the way.

BEFORE:
This is where it started, our initial meeting at the site of an old scrapbooking store...

AFTER...
I'm always so excited for the AFTER photos!  Here are the final professional photos of the space. A clean, light, modern spot designed for Millennials in mind. 

Along with ebony wood tables and aluminum chairs, there are refurbished upholstered booths, a dual-sided fireplace with bean bag chairs, tablet-arm lounge chairs, a coffee bar to chat with the baristas, and a high top counter to work on laptops next to the open garage door feature.

In addition to the coffee house, the event center hosts several live performances and bands as well as a conference room available for rent by the public. Located at 10518 France Ave. South, Bloomington, MN. Support local.

transformation

Sienna Lynn Studio completed an office building renovation in Bloomington.  Quite a transformation.  Check out the before and after photos...

Before:
(a bird feeder, plastic plants, a wolf...😄)

After:
(A sitting area with real plants, an angled wall to match the planter angle, new furniture, carpet, new neutral paint throughout and gray accent wall color)

exterior challenge

Before:

An office building with a lack of curb appeal.  

Sienna lynn studio introduces a warmer color palette to attract new tenants to the building.  New dark umber metal replaces the old shingles to achieve a more modern commercial look.  A band of 'spicy hue' paint adds a pop of color, while taupe paint creates sophistication and minimizes the angled protrusions by the windows.

After:

reception transformation

Existing ceiling tiles are removed, walls and floors prepped... 

After: 

Dramatic!  The new office reception area showcases the company's unique architectural products and applications. 

Custom designed reception desk with vertical glass tile and brushed metal top, specialty lighting, wood ceiling by Acoustigreen, Minneapolis skyline on Novawall, with SW6354 Armagnac paint color:

restrooms x8

A classic modern office building with dark, out-dated restrooms.  Plenty of project coordination to get each floor remodeled on a tight budget, while giving them a clean, streamlined aesthetic.   

Before:

Sienna lynn studio created lighter, brighter restrooms for each floor.  New 12"x 24" horizontal tile planks line the walls.  A mono-chromatic color palette works well with the original 2"x 2" floor tile.   

The new stainless steel sinks and Silestone quartz countertops are anti-microbial, durable, and timeless.

marketing design space

Located in the lively North Loop neighborhood, In Food Marketing + Design hired sienna lynn studio to design a fresh, vibrant workspace to match their creative brand. 

Several existing multi-colored walls change to neutral ivory and accent walls become their branded green hue.  A new industrial focal wall creates a visual separation, while providing tack-able surface for meetings.  The interior design scope includes: updates to flooring, furniture, workstations, art installations, lighting, and a remodeled kitchen galley.  More photos posted following the October Open House.

The newly branded office!  Sienna Lynn Studio incorporates tailored, transitional details, with modern accents.  Perimeter glass carries natural light into the space, half-height walls create an open-office atmosphere, and flat screen monitors become focal points throughout.  

b4 and after

Many of you have asked to see more of our 'before and after' photos on this blog.  Here are a few from the urban office project.

I had the opportunity to design a new office build-out in the Minneapolis North Loop neighborhood. Two non-profits merged together to form a new organization with new requirements and a much larger space. 

Sienna Lynn Studio worked with the client to integrate the diverse brands and work styles of two merging organizations.  The new space provides a dramatic entrance into the reception area, private offices, open workstations, bike racks, locker room, large and small conference rooms, and cafe that supports valued cultural influences.  Maintaining environmentally friendly, sustainable materials and technologies is also a main concept captured throughout the space.
