ASPEN INSURANCE
LOCATION: Jersey City, NJ
SIZE: 25,000 SF
SPACE TYPE: Corporate Office
The architectural and lighting design concepts for this insurance company regional location was envisioned as a scalable prototype for future offices, employing a versatile kit of elements. Reflecting the brand as characterized by neutral tones punctuated with vibrant accents, the design emphasizes textures, patterns, and well-lit workspaces. Open-plan work areas and private offices feature understated recessed linears and downlights, allowing specialty zones to command attention with more bespoke solutions.
The geometry of the lighting design in the café makes a nod to the Aspen logo, incorporating a suspended linear and spot system that mimics intersecting pathways. Concealed tape lights delicately highlight tile and wood accents. In the boardroom, a discreet low-profile linear fixture echoes this motif, finished in white to seamlessly integrate with the ceiling while maintaining a sophisticated appearance.
