Ntrepid

Ntrepid, a self-described “unconventional technology company,” turned to sshape for a full-floor build-out of it’s Herndon, Virginia headquarters. This was no standard office design project.

The ALS Association

sshape’s complete redesign of The ALS Association’s 12,066 square foot space in Arlington, Virginia, was not just about modernizing a workplace—it positions the non-profit’s mission front and center, both structurally and visually.

 

 

Vault Consulting

When it came time to move from a sublet into a permanent space, Vault Consulting placed its trust in sshape. To take Vault from a makeshift home to a space that reflects its own culture and identity, sshape engaged the accounting and research firm in a comprehensive space planning process and visioning session.

MidCap Financial

sshape worked with MidCap Financial to redefine their working style and create an efficient, modern space that delivers individual privacy while encouraging collaboration and social interaction.

1275 K Street, NW

Faced with a segmented space cluttered with outdated patterns and finishes, sshape is transforming the entryway and lobby of 1275 K Street, a premium commercial property in the heart of the District. The redesign started with eliminating existing partitions and alcoves to open and streamline the floorplan.

 

  • 455 Massachussetts Ave, NW

  • Strayer University/Capella University

    Adapting its campus model to a new generation of working adults, Strayer University’s new storefront campuses provide a setting for student support, quiet study, and socializing.

  • Harbourtown

    sshape’s approach to 3000 K Street NW was an opportunity to reflect the building’s relationship to it’s connection along the water. Positioned at the edge of the Potomac River, sshape looked into the qualities and characteristics of the body of water and how they could be transformed into an experiential architectural expression.

  • National Quality Forum

    The project is the perfect endorsement of the design team’s flexibility and gives NQF the space they need for their transformation to take root.

  • Democratic Attorneys General Association

    DAGA’s office space reflects two competing styles: one buttoned-up to suit the attorney generals and government dignitaries they’d host on a regular basis and the other untucked to keep the staff and any events they might throw energized, excited and comfortable.
