FEATURE

There are several areas
designed for relaxation and
self-care in the office, like the
meditation rooms on each
floor, which were not part of
the original design, but "a
happy accident, as part of the
extensive renovation that was
done to make the building
habitable and functional as an
office," says Conforte. "We
were left with an old elevator
shaft that was tucked away in
a quieter part of the office that
had this enclosure."

explains were "a happy accident." While they were not originally
planned, " as part of the extensive renovation, that was done to make
the building habitable and functional as an office. We were left with
an old elevator shaft that was tucked away in a quieter part of the
office that had this enclosure," she adds.
As Vital Proteins continues to experience rapid growth-
they anticipate $200 million in revenue this year alone-the SCB
designers wanted to ensure that the facility would be able to meet
employee needs through all phases of its expansion while remaining
seamlessly comfortable during periods of growth. "High-top tables,
lounge spaces, and phone rooms are currently being used throughout
the day by employees looking to change up their work environment,
but will also be critical in accommodating added headcount
and creating flexible workspaces for new staff," notes Seidensticker.
With so much attention on the perks that companies
offer today, and competitors showcasing their enviable interiors to
competitors and prospective employees alike on social media, there's
seldom a discussion when wellness features go unused at the office.
But at Vital Proteins, all of the offerings are regularly utilized because
they are an extension of their lifestyle. "So much about the cult

ure at Vital Proteins extends beyond working hours. It really is
a holistic view of how to live your life," Conforte says. "This project
was unique in the way the amenities were incorporated because
it is authentic. It's not an office space where we carved out a cool
café or gym space. It's all front and center."
