IMAX Staff Area
BTi was approached to redevelop the existing IMAX headquarters outdoor amenity space that was unkept, lacked sufficient usable space, and was underused by staff. We developed a refreshed design of the space that made use of the existing tree canopy, introduced a clean and contemporary look that reflected the IMAX image, and provided an expanded patio that could be enjoyed by staff during the day and night. The design includes expansive plank paving, elliptical steel planter edges, and a combination of meadow grass and shady perennial plantings. Three aluminum shade structures were incorporated for seating, shelter, and highlighting the patio entrance. New planter pots, tables, chairs, and umbrellas were introduced for seating under the sun. A grid of string wire lighting criss-crosses over the patio for a comfortable space after the sun has set.
