First Security Info
First Security BuildingOffice RemodelSalt Lake City, UtahThe owner of the First Security Building in downtown Salt Lake City desired an interior remodel of their historic building. This project will serve as a model floor to be used in the leasing of 5 other floors in the building, among other marketing uses. The spatial organization of the tenant space was arranged to break the rigid geometry of the existing shell and create open spaces. Glass was used where possible for walls and doors to further open the spaces visually and allow light to penetrate into all major areas of the project. The use of wood flooring for the wall finishes creates a warm and inviting space in the main entrance and lobby areas. As in other offices, the reception desk serves as the focus of activity and attention in this project. The simple geometry of the desk contrasts with the complex surface undulations and ripples, which vary in intensity, from one area of the desk to the next. Flat surfaces are provided for working, making this desk a functional and visually striking centerpiece to the project.

Axis Info
Axis ArchitectsSalt Lake City, UtahCompleted: 2010Axis Architects recently completed construction on a new office facility. Extensively remodeled from a former trophy shop, the new office has an open layout that fosters creativity and communication between employees. Iconic forms such as the entrance and lobby area and the conference room serve to separate the large open space. The large program elements such as the conference room and restrooms serve to separate the large open space into distinct work areas. In addition, the negative space created by the large elements is used to contain the mechanical and electrical rooms. This efficient use of space allows the firm to use a maximum of available interior space. This project is LEED Gold certified, a distinction given to new buildings which use state-of-the-art sustainable techniques and energy saving systems. Daylighting systems allow an abundance of natural light into the space to minimize electrical usage during the day. The HVAC system uses a variety of control measures to minimize waste and energy usage. Renewable materials are used whenever necessary, and the office is located adjacent to alternative transportation methods.

City Creek Info
City Creek CenterSales OfficeSalt Lake City, UtahClient: City Creek Reserve, Inc.2,700 SF$377,000Design: Pierre LangueCompleted: August 2011This real estate sales office is responsible for the marketing and sales of 300 condominium units in 3 high-rise buildings located in downtown Salt Lake City. Axis paid close attention to detailing and materials, along with the overall spatial layout of the space. The resulting design creates an impressive but warm space that welcomes prospective customers into the office. Working with a limited budget and schedule, Axis Architects created a functional and elegant space. The design and construction documents had to be completed in 3 weeks to meet the owners schedule.The City Creek concept began as a way to bring a new style of urban living to Salt Lake City's downtown, a more cosmopolitan atmosphere here in this historic western city. It culminates in a community that will bring not only new energy to the City, but will also energize all those who live, work, and play here. As City Creek meanders through the pathways and plazas, past living spaces located above intriguing shops and dining options, so too will residents and visitors alike discover a pleasant urban stroll as exciting and energizing as anything that's ever come to downtown.
