Take a Look at Synapse’s Seattle Offices

Gensler designed the offices of Synapse, a product design, and technology development consultancy company located in Seattle, Washington.

For its two-story downtown waterfront office, this rapidly growing product development company sought the best possible place for its staff to work. Of first order was forging a design that balanced security – for the Fortune 500 client base that evaluates product prototypes – with the internal collaboration essential to Synapse. In response, the floor plan has minimal visual barriers, with the only full-height fixed partitions at building exterior walls. Divided into public and private zones, cross-circulation encourages collaboration, while operable partitions separate spaces when privacy is needed. A vertical metal “stick” system painted “Synapse Red” connects the two floors with a dramatic brand statement,” said Gensler
