ONSITE OFFSITE

CORPORATE OFFICES

OVERVIEW

Set the mood for creative thinking.



This is a space for team Offsites, but with the convenience and efficiency of not leaving Nike. The hospitality atmosphere, with elevated brand and finishes, is distinct and feels separated from the rest of the building. There is space to move around and casual seating, making it perfect for long workshops for team building, planning, and presentations. The rooms are typically booked for full or half days. On a campus, each room is unique, making it a draw for teams to move between buildings for a different experience.


Design Goals

  • Provide a distinct shift in atmosphere when occupying the space, momentarily disconnecting from the rest of the building. The Onsite Offsite should provide a hospitality-like environment designed to help transition into a different mindset.
  • Offer a range of seating options to accommodate different preferences, ensuring comfort for extended periods of sitting.
  • Avoid incorporating booths or built-in dining areas within the space. Instead, consider the inclusion of built-in shelving or custom millwork, which can enhance the character of the space while providing functional display areas for products and merchandise.
  • Need to function for hybrid and in-person meetings. Consider sound quality and placement of brand walls and whiteboards for virtual attendees.

Branding

Set the tone with brand installations that are sophisticated and multi-dimensional. There should be no question that this is a Nike environment.
