Morgantown, Pennsylvania. May 28, 2010 — EthoSource has proven once again that recycled design is a contemporary way to transform an office space with their latest relocation project for Engauge, a highly sought after marketing company.
Engauge relocated to the famous Frick Building in downtown Pittsburgh and challenged the EthoSource team to a 6500 square foot design project to provide private offices, cubicles and manager stations for their marketing headquarters. The aim was to create an eco-friendly workspace that flowed effortlessly with the surrounding history and distinction of the Frick Building, a downtown landmark since 1902.
Incorporating modern design into such an historical building may have posed a problem for most, but not for EthoSource. Sustainability and style are important when choosing and customizing recycled office furniture. Working closely with the client, EthoSource managed to maintain the integrity of the building, while adding an edge to the office with contemporary colors and metallic finishes.
The EthoSource design team created a layout suitable to Engauge’s unique workspace needs, then worked closely with the company to select the fabrics and finishes that would execute the project successfully. According to David Burke, Director of Business Operations at Enguage, “The input the EthoSource team was able to provide to us as we were planning the space was very valuable. Engauge chose EthoSource as it gave us a great deal of value, style and quality for the price over similar new builds. You would have no idea that it was refurbished.”
Engauge can rest assured that they will be working in a contemporary office that’s also easier on the environment. Gone are the days of having to compromise style to be environmentally aware in the office workspace. Since refurbished office furniture uses less raw materials, energy and labor, it also provides a much better value.
EthoSource is a nationally recognized leader in the field of pre-owned office furniture. Their philosophy embraces the recycling and refurbishing of used office furniture as an economic and ecological advantage to buying new. Their professional team is dedicated to supporting the entire office furniture process – from design to installation – with the goal of providing smart, sustainable and affordable office furniture solutions that exceed expectations.
