When it came time to design our own studio headquarters, we approached it just like we would any client project: with intention, creativity, and uncompromising attention to detail. Housed inside a restored 1940s brick building, our HQ was built to reflect the heart of our brand—a space that balances timeless design, a collaborative spirit, and luxurious functionality. Every element, from layout to lighting, was designed not just to look beautiful, but to enhance how our team and clients experience the design process.


The Modern Hive headquarters was built to reflect the heart of our brand story.

Commercial Design

Project Type:

High - End, Luxury 

Investment Type:

COLLABORATIVE OPEN-CONCEPT STUDIO LAYOUT

At the core of our space is an open-plan work zone designed to foster collaboration. Shared desking, breakout zones, and integrated technology allow our team to ideate together fluidly—ensuring projects stay cohesive from concept to completion.

CURATED SAMPLE STORAGE + DESIGN LIBRARY

Every fabric swatch, tile, and material sample has a place. Custom built-ins and display areas keep our library organized, accessible, and inspiring—making it easier to create design schemes with efficiency and flair.


Key Implementations

SIGNATURE ARCHITECTURAL DETAILS

To demonstrate what’s possible, we layered in elevated finishes throughout—from natural stone countertops and millwork-wrapped walls to dramatic pendants and showstopping wallpapers. Even the break room and powder bath are teaching tools for our clients.



PRESERVING CHARM IN A HISTORIC BUILDING

We retained the original open ceiling and exposed ductwork to celebrate the building’s vintage character, contrasting it with crisp paint and sleek finishes to keep the vibe modern and fresh.

Challenges + Solutions

DESIGNING A NEUTRAL YET INSPIRING BACKDROP

As a design firm that works across styles, we needed a studio that didn’t compete with client presentations. We kept the palette light and architectural, allowing design boards and samples to shine while the space still feels visually dynamic.
