A full-service management consulting, user experience and technology solutions firm, occupying two floors in the Dallas area selected our founder Nick Terry to locate their new offices in Houston, Texas. The client sought to have a space that blended the current looks of the Dallas, TX headquarters office and the newly renovated Denver, CO office, but maintain a Houston vibe. The space designed by Inventure Design consists of open, collaborative work areas, offices that provide privacy for specialized team work or phone calls andone main conference room for private meetings. Selecting a location that would support the client’s desire to attract and retain top industry talent was crucial to growing the Houston office.
