Margulies Perruzzi Architects has completed the design of 100,000-sf of office space in Boston for Pioneer Investments, a global investment firm.
Providing space planning and interior design services, MPA updated the office design and additional support space consisting of five floors at Pioneer’s Boston office located at 60 State Street. MPA crafted a master plan to help Pioneer strategize how to best utilize this space on a long-term basis, and completely redesigned the 16th floor, embracing an open layout with fewer private offices and creating a model for Pioneer’s future space planning.
MPA redesigned workspaces, conference rooms, lobbies, reception areas and selected new finishes, furniture, and lighting. The project included a major reconfiguration of Pioneer’s IT/mission critical spaces and the addition of a conference center featuring a suite of conference rooms with a large breakout area. In order to allow Pioneer’s operations to continue during construction, MPA phased the renovation schedule and utilized available swing space.
