Client
Blueprint + Co is a coworking space where seasoned professionals, executives and entrepreneurs can be part of an exclusive network that connects them with other influencers and innovators. As founder and CEO Daymond John likes to say, Blueprint + Co is dedicated to helping you “take your work to a whole new level.”
Business Challenge
Having worked with the Vari® team on his Manhattan headquarters for The Shark Group, Daymond felt that Vari would be a perfect partner in helping him bring his unique vision of a coworking space to life. He understood that by investing in a happier, more productive work environment for his employees, he could get ahead of the competition with a team that’s energized and ready to work. Because the nature of a coworking space is constant change and collaboration, flexibility was a key factor in the final design.
“Anything that we needed, the Vari team would think ahead of us. They over-delivered.”
Solution
Our design team consulted with the Blueprint + Co. team to plan a space that is agile, open and conducive to maximum productivity. Then, our white glove service team got to work, and in just days they were able to set up all 152 desks and accessories in the 17,000 sq.ft. space. They unpacked, set up, and outfitted every Vari workstation with all the accessories an active office needs. The Halo Pendants, QuickFlex Walls®, and storage cabinets finished everything out to create a sleek, modern look that perfectly complements the industrial Manhattan space.
The Result
CEO Daymond John was impressed with the level of expertise and customer service he received from the Vari team: “Anything that we needed, the Vari team would think ahead of us. They over-delivered.” The result is a well-planned space that will get maximum results from members while providing a workspace that everyone will be proud to bring clients into.
