A Look Inside Create Advertising’s Modern Los Angeles Office
Create Advertising, an entertainment marketing agency with work spanning from theatrical to television, from gaming to VR, and everything in-between, recently moved into a new office in Los Angeles, California, designed bySander Architects and Nine Dot Design.
“Sander Architects were in charge of the build-out and Nine Dot Design was tasked with furnishing and designing the open and private office areas. These included the reception, breakout areas, client bay, executive offices and kitchen and dining area. When the clients came to me, they had referenced wanting a modern-eclectic space that made the employees feel comfortable and at home due to the long hours typical of the advertising world. With Amber Interiors as the main point of reference from the client, I wanted to design the interior to feel inviting, lived-in and creative.
I achieved this by mixing modern furniture with bold colors, vintage rugs and textiles, textured wood and tons and tons of plants. Plants were one of the most important components for warming up the space to bring the outside in, as well as, an extension of the amazing views. With the kitchen and dining area especially, I wanted to create an escape for employees to come to relax, socialize and recharge, so I added a ton of hanging plants to take up visual space and again bring in some greenery and life to a modern interior.
Since the office is set up with mostly private office spaces, employees spend a lot of time in their office’s meeting, editing, writing, etc. I wanted the breakout and social areas to feel like the perfect escape and to give them the opportunity to get out of their offices to meet, eat, etc. Another key component was to source locally to the Los Angeles area. The majority of furniture came from local vendors and all accessories, rugs, pillows, etc. are from local, independent shops.”
