Project: 28Walker Offices
Client: 28Walker

28 Walker is an 8,000 square foot interior office fit out in Baltimore’s first mass timber building. This workspace redefines the conventional office environment by seamlessly blending modern design with sustainable principles. The wellbeing of the employees was at the forethought in the layout of the office. Natural light is evident in the expansive glass office partitions that invite the sun to permeate every corner. By introducing clerestory windows atop interior office cubes, the space achieves a balance between privacy and openness, allowing the mass timber ceiling to transcend through the entire office. A spacious kitchen, designed as a hub for collaboration and connection, embodies the concept of community which is central to 28Walker. Light, space, and sustainability converge to inspire creativity, foster productivity, and nurture a sense of belonging at 28Walker.
