Studio BV has created a collaborative work environment for their new design offices located in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Studio BV is a new design studio founded on the idea of reinvention with a mission of creating transformational design solutions and setting out to reshape the practice of design. The first office for this new firm is reflective of that mission. Flexible, open, transparent and hard working the studio space is open and embraces the warm materials of wood, steel and brick of the historic warehouse.

The firm is collaborative in its work and the studio is designed to foster that work. The studio features, sliding doors that you can pin up work on, writable glass walls, sit to stand and lounge huddle rooms, collaborative and formal conference rooms and places to connect near the studio workspace. This diversity of space supports the different needs of the design teams and their clients.

Studio BV was able to apply all the research, amenities and details that they often employ for their workplace clients but customized for their needs and culture. The studio is designed to change over time. The workspace can accommodate growth with little reconfiguring to respond to the needs of the growing firm.

The brand of Studio BV is aperient as you walk in the door. The custom brand wall comprised of rotating colored blocks, allow the design team to create new expressions of patterns to express the mood of the firm. Art plays a signature role in the office. The art collection is comprised of mostly local painters, weavers and photographers and is on display throughout the space.
