CBRE’s recently opened state-of-the-art office at The Esplanade in Phoenix is part of the company’s global “Workplace360” initiative, and, at 75,000 square feet, is its largest. Guests, clients and employees enter the space in what’s known as The Heart, where they will be greeted by concierge staff. The high-tech common area features both a media wall and an immersive, multi-screen presentation tool called Liquid Galaxy, which allows the user to showcase 3D building models, panoramic interior photos, analytical data and mapping technology and provide street-level-view “walking tours” around a given location.
Health and wellness components are part of the design, and, adding a touch of local flair, the new space incorporates artwork from Phoenix-area talent, including painters Niki Woehler, Khristine Leatherman and Holly Anderson; mixed media artist Alan Bur Johnson; and abstract photographer Johnny Kerr.
