Ingenuity Studios
This heritage Yaletown space was a maze of old tenant improvements that had been added, expanded and hacked together over the years. We pulled everything back to expose the beautiful post & beam structure, hidden skylights, and original brick. Building from these amazing bones, we layered on industrial elements such as a custom metal-shrouded reception desk and wood slat wall with hidden storage.
The space is warm and inviting with soft curved shapes in lighting and millwork, as well as a large woven fabric wall to provide privacy to the open workspace. As a VFX studio, Ingenuity requires dedicated review space for large groups. We incorporated a full theatre space with staged seating and custom sofas for maximum comfort in those long viewing sessions. The overall space is a balance of opposites; new and old, light & dark, industrial and natural, innovative and comfortable.
The perfect space for a hard-working team focused on both advancing technology and creative artistry.
