Description:
We worked with TACKarchitects on the interior for MindMixer’s Omaha offices. They tasked us with designing a bench seating area with tabletops that can fold up and onto the wall when they’re not needed, and can easily and securely drop down when they are needed.

During the prototyping phase, TACK saw some experiments we were doing with finger joint joinery, and thought that would be a great way of subtly illustrating the idea of two independent trajectories coming together to make something greater than the sum of its parts, a message that resonated strongly with MindMixer’s core mission.

Through careful production design, we ensured that any time two planes of material were going to intersect, they would do so with a visible finger joint, to reinforce MindMixer’s mission and branding in their interior space.

Branding within the joinery itself. Pretty wild, right?
