The 1,700-sf mezzanine not only serves as a display of Swinerton’s mass timber expertise, but also affords the company space for future expansion and an architectural wood finish often coveted in traditional office environments. Several skylights on the mezzanine level and large windows throughout the space provide an abundance of natural light to support a healthy work environment.

Custom break room booth seating and glass roll-up patio doors provide flexible workplaces away from the desk. Exposed decorative lighting also contributes to the aesthetics of the space, contributing to the home-like ambiance that even includes a kegerator.
