Cool Servlets

1. We have served Jive Software since they moved to Portland from New York. Our palette of colors drew from the company's logo - in this photo, warm paint colors interplay custom lighting.

2-3. Jive Software's founders came to Portland from the East Coast for a change of lifestyle. These young, energetic people wanted to appear substantial and avoid building a cubicle farm on a tight budget. Our solution was to use inexpensive design elements such as paint, strategically placed light fixtures, and refined systems furniture to give Jive a gorgeous and economical office in their new home town.

4. Jive's founders are bicycle enthusiasts, so we juxtaposed their otherwise formal lobby with built-in bike parking. The innovative braided vinyl flooring in the lobby is resistant to marring from bicycle tires.

5. We had the wall behind Jive's bicycle parking covered in smudge-resistant plastic laminate. Striped in-lays in the floor below demarcate each parking space.

6.  Jive's employee lounge is situated in the corner with the best view and exposure to natural light. A sound proof window to the work area allows the passage of natural light while filtering out noise from the lounge. We specified extremely durable furniture that could withstand heavy use from Jive's energetic employees.
