Margulies Perruzzi Architects completes new office space for The Coyle Co.: Jones Lang LaSalle serves as construction manager

Margulies Perruzzi Architects (MPA) completed the interior design of 6,000 s/f of new office space for The Coyle Company, an exclusive estate and generational planning business. Having designed The Coyle Co.'s previous office in Waltham in 2005, MPA was again selected to design Class A office space for the firm's move to the Wellesley Office Park. The new space showcases a diverse range of color and artwork, alongside comfortable and contemporary furniture and finishes. It features a mix of offices and low-walled, glass-paneled workstations that promote visibility and collaboration. Three conference rooms, enclosed in glass, feature round circular tables for formal meetings, as well as sofas and armchairs for more casual gatherings. "Our last project with The Coyle Company was an award-winning collaboration," said Marc Margulies, AIA, LEED AP, principal at MPA. "That familiarity with The Coyle Co. - and Janet Coyle's vision for this new space - allowed us to hit the ground running with the firm's latest project." In addition to the workspaces, MPA designed The Coyle Co.'s new office break room featuring a kitchen island with barstools and the relaxed feeling of warm, even lighting from cove fixtures. Lighting was also key in highlighting the artwork that appears throughout the office. Artist Sara Egan was commissioned to paint an accent wall behind the reception area. Twenty-four other framed pieces of art amassed throughout the years by The Coyle Co. were incorporated into the design of the office. "MPA's design truly reflects our company's culture and personality," said Janet Coyle, president of The Coyle Co. "The sense of color and comfort made for an easy transition into our new office space." Equity Office is the building owner, and Jones Lang LaSalle served as broker and construction manager.
