An impending lease expiration, and a lack of space for growth at their Soho office, required MAC Cosmetics to look for a new home for their corporate offices, landing at One Soho Square in Hudson Square. Four new floors presented MAC with the opportunity to refine their office presence while still staying true to their brand identity. A “Ruby Woo” metal staircase serves as the focal point within the space, linking special destinations on each floor, to encourage movement throughout the office. Upon completion of construction, careful internal coordination was required to successfully move a 350 person office over a long weekend, followed by fulfilling the lease obligations upon vacating their existing space.

This project is pursuing WELL Silver level certification.
