MDG Haddonfield Office
Haddonfield, New Jersey
After 15 years in the business, I finally graduated to my own office. Considering I can spend up to 60 hours a week in my workspace, I wanted it to be a place I enjoyed coming to. It needed to inspire creativity and give me the freedom to daydream, while still being organized enough to support large design projects.
Meeting with clients was also an important function of the office, so I incorporated architectural and decorative elements that help demonstrate how details impact a space. The large-format wallcovering made a bold statement and often inspired clients to consider wallcoverings in their own homes.
Wall and ceiling details that push the boundaries of traditional trim work, along with built-ins inspired by affordable systems, demonstrate that inexpensive does not always mean cheap. I believe it’s all about how the elements are brought together. An adjustable-height workstation helps reduce strain during long hours at the computer, while custom window treatments and a custom-designed credenza showcase the talents of the manufacturers and artisans I work with.
As with any office design, the space should not only reflect the services offered but also create an enjoyable environment that inspires creativity and productivity.
This was my previous office. I have since relocated my studio to Cherry Hill, New Jersey.
