Quorum Architects’ Office

Fort Worth, TX

This 1930s warehouse is Quorum’s second adaptive reuse project on Fort Worth’s historic near south side, which is currently experiencing rapid growth and development. The design highlights the beauty of original architectural elements like steel beams, clerestory windows and brick walls, making it a unique blend of modern design within an industrial setting.

Open and airy, the space is filled with natural light, while LED lighting adjusts to keep levels even throughout the day. Staff enjoys sit/stand desks or the ability to move and work collaboratively throughout the space. Wellness rooms, phone booths and multiple conference rooms offer more private options for conversations, meetings or respite.

The centrally-located kitchen and break area, a popular gathering spot for socializing and meals, features an acoustically absorbent moss ceiling and colorful banquet seating. The new mezzanine, with additional conference and lounge areas, is suspended from the original steel beams and takes advantage of the light from the clerestory windows.
