Transporting a workplace into the next generation of working

Armstrong Transport Group relocated its global headquarters from North Charlotte to the heart of South End. This 24,405 square-foot, first-generation upfit is a dynamic and energetic workplace created to excite employees, welcoming them from their old space in the suburbs to their new home in the city.

Where work meets play

Every element of Armstrong’s new space, from location to unique offerings, was designed to emulate an energetic work environment with the goal of attracting and retaining talent. A large break area serves as a place for gatherings, open workspaces encourage collaboration, and an employee game room encourages camaraderie. A large boardroom, private offices, and conference rooms add flexibility to the work environment.

Side Story

The Barringer Way

Hard Hat Happy Hour

Much energy was put into getting employees excited about relocating and revitalizing their company’s headquarters. To continue drumming up excitement, the project team hosted a Hard Hat Happy Hour that allowed employees to get a sneak peek behind the scenes and see the progress of their new home.

Emulating a brand through design

Strategically designed to emulate elements of transportation and movement, this space pays homage to the company’s industry. Intentionally selected elements can be found at every turn, from the angled wood veneer panels on the ceiling to the multi-directional tiles in the breakroom. Open ceilings add depth to the space, and a sleek, modern lobby showcases the brand’s elevated image to clients and employees alike.
