AN OFFICE FOR Dynamit

Columbus, Ohio

Miss Scarlet, in the library… with a macbook.

 Dynamit creates web and mobile applications.  They are a hard-working and dynamic company.  They also sat across from us once at a meeting and asked, “Could the space be based on the classic board game Clue?”  

The answer when someone asks that, for the record, is of course yes. 

And so it was.  There is much more to this project than a playful premise… a need for meeting spaces, infrastructure for technology, places to make and take phone calls… and of course a bookcase that opens up to reveal a hidden room.

Dynamit was serious about making a fun space and we enjoyed the charge.  They procured a fantastic suite in a building originally built as a tractor sales showroom and warehouse.  Concrete columns and brick walls were a fantastic starting point.  The work area is open but counterbalanced by ample “quiet space” – some suitable for groups and others for individuals.  The project also created a place to highlight their various (and numerous) awards and recognition for work well done.  

Phase Two was the creation of a roof deck suitable for a breakout session or just a plain old break.  Not half bad for a happy hour either.
