Health Communities sought to repurpose the a large space in a former mill, the National Felt building in Northampton, MA, to accommodate their high tech company. Thomas Douglas Architects gutted the 3,500 square foot structure and filled it with a modern technology feel while echoing the industrial fabric of the original space.
Exposed brick and wood beams define this space, and the use of local wood and stone further connect the new business to the historical relevance of the mill. The office features two custom conference rooms down to the details of the furniture and lighting. These spaces include integrated data sources, telephones, and computers. Modern materials and lighting combined with the industrial fabric of the ex-mill building create an open modern office.
