In designing for neurodiversity, the team reimagined materials as tools for sensory well-being. Custom felt baffle ceilings enhanced acoustic performance while introducing warm texture. Calming lighting, subdued finishes, lounge spaces and wellness rooms offer decompression spaces. Collaborating closely with vendors and specialists, the team explored custom finishes and unconventional applications to meet precise acoustic standards while aligning with the space’s soft, inviting palette. Every solution balanced function, aesthetic and brand personality.

Completed on time and within budget in February 2025, the project team also logged zero lost-time or recordable incidents across 59,200 work hours. A comprehensive safety program included weekly site audits, third-party urgent care access, air scrubbers throughout the jobsite and multiple safety stand-downs addressing fall prevention, heat stress and fire safety.
