Seeking to update its Southern California warehouse and distribution center, this nationwide distributor of imported, craft, and domestic beers reimagined its facility to create a cutting-edge headquarters that represents the brand and the role of a distributor – creating connections.  The new design includes a breathtaking lobby, centrally located and with a 23-foot-tall window overlooking the 400,000 square-foot warehouse, creating a dynamic backdrop and a view of the business.

The grand lobby draws inspiration from the company’s products and beach location. Wheat and barley, two key ingredients used in beer production, and koa wood surfboards influenced the color palette and furnishings. A Seem 2 LED Recessed pattern mimics the square shape of the lobby and boardwalk gallery. The slim aperture of the luminaire supports the sleek design aesthetic of the space, while its powerful illumination provides optimal lighting for the two-story structure.
