Maugel Architects completes interior design for Borrego Solar Systems

Maugel Architects has completed 11,000 s/f of office space for Borrego Solar Systems, Inc., located at 55 Technology Dr. This is Maugel's second commission for Borrego Solar. In 2011, Maugel provided space requirements planning for Borrego's previous location on Westford St. Additional team members included Redstar Contracting and EDE Engineers. The property at 55 Technology Dr. was well known to Maugel. The firm had previously renovated the building's lobby and common areas and designed multiple office fit-ups for the space while it was owned by Nordblom Company. Maugel was working with the current owners, Novoya Real Estate, to market the building when Borrego expressed interest. Maugel's design features a mix of private and open office areas and amenities. The open office area features a large centrally-located conference room lined with floor-to-ceiling frameless glass walls—designed around a custom-made solar panel table; an employee lounge and games area; and cubicles arranged in a bullpen formation with 48" walls and glass panel to allow for collaboration and visual connection to the exterior. Brendan Nagle, chief operating officer at Borrego Solar Systems said, "Maugel created the perfect space for us at Technology Dr.—with its open floor plan, glass walls, ample conference rooms and lounge areas, we are able to work more collaboratively and comfortably. We are continuing to build out the Borrego team and while we needed an office that could accommodate our practical needs for space, we also wanted the office to facilitate our inclusive work culture and be a welcoming space to host customers." Sarah Cormier, project manager at Maugel Architects said, "We are happy to be continuing our relationship with the team at Borrego Solar Systems. We were able to pick up right where we left off and create an innovative expansion space to suit Borrego's needs. We look forward to working together on future projects."
