FENNIE+MEHL Architects
Recipient
In a city known for the intersection of innovation and culture, The Forum at 425 Market sets the new gold standard for what it means to come to work in San Francisco.
As in-person work gains momentum, FENNIE+MEHL was entrusted to create a destination experience that would exceed tenant expectations. The Forum reimagines what the workday can feel like: more connected, more energizing, more inspiring.
From high-design meeting rooms and collaborative work areas to a gaming lounge and community hub, every detail was built to consider the people who will use it daily. Connected bespoke spaces offer moments to meet, recharge, play, and thrive.
While each space within The Forum has its own distinct personality, it maintains a cohesive design language throughout. Curved elements create gentle transitions and guide a natural flow through the space. Continuous wood flooring connects the areas, while indirect lighting quietly highlights the architecture. An eclectic mix of bold patterns and textures creates a vibrant and social vibe, while a deep palette, moody lighting, and serene materials create chill spaces. The result is a refined yet effortlessly relaxed atmosphere.
