Paradigm Design, a national Architecture and Engineering firm, recently created a new home for their growing corporate office on the West Side of downtown Grand Rapids. The office is approximately 14,000 sf of the 2nd and 3rd floors of a newly created three-story building. Currently, Paradigm has 43 employees
and is expanding in all three of their office locations: Grand Rapids, Traverse City and Phoenix.

Designed during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Paradigm Design was intent on going beyond the norm when it came to the health of their staff and guests. To achieve this, Paradigm Design included virus killing UV blue light in the duct work, upgraded filters on the roof top units, as well as additional humidification control. Paradigm Design worked closely with Interphase Interiors and Haworth to create the ideal furniture configurations to foster a healthy and productive work environment.

The main entrance to Paradigm Design is located on the second floor. In the main lobby area you’ll find cozy seating and a modern interior garden. The large open office layout includes:

  • private administration offices
  • two focus-friendly enclosed rooms
  • small conference room
  • large conference room shared with the other building tenant, Interphase Interiors

The sculptural stair connecting the two levels makes it convenient for staff to converge and communicate. The third floor includes:

  • breakroom with an inviting outdoor balcony overlooking the neighborhood to the north

  • virtual reality lounge where staff can work and play

  • interiors library
  • private leadership offices
  • several open team areas with adjacent large scale magnetic white boards

Ultimately, Paradigm Design created a modern and efficient office design that offers daylight views and encourages social distancing. This newly designed space is welcoming to both our staff and guests.
