Center of Excellence in Finance
The project consists of the transformation of the Center of Excellence in Finance’s offices, primarily the entrance hall and reception area of the main building, which is adjacent to the lecture halls and meeting rooms. The architects and the clients both agreed that first impressions matter, and the new space needed to signal that CEF is not a traditional finance organization, but rather one that shares its clients’ goals and focuses on flexibility and mentoring. The result of the collaboration is a bright, open and welcoming space that encourages people to use it in the ways that suit them best. Its adaptability to their ever-changing needs is one of its most important features.
