At Cook Ross, professionals make use of an open concept collaborative office with equal areas for retreat and contemplation. Featuring plenty of comfortable seating, the space blends natural light with a variety of fixtures and finishes. Wood and ceramics are authentic and sustainable, while indigo, violet, and pale-yellow accents are calm, clear, passionate, and bold. Large format portraits of eminent thought leaders punctuate the space, lending a sense of legacy and purpose. Interior planters, textiles, and artwork enhance employee wellness, promote environmental stewardship, and weave global cultures throughout. Blending timeless and contemporary elements, this equitable design sets human progress in harmony with nature.
