Hudson’s Detroit (while working at Pophouse)

The design of Hudson's atrium embodies a tech-focused approach, with innovation serving as its guiding principle. Its sleek curves and fluid design are contrasted with elements of biophilia, promoting a feeling of wellness within the space. By integrating the outdoors with the indoors, the atrium provides a tranquil area of respite from the bustle of Woodward Avenue, amplified by a skylight that floods the space with natural light. The atrium offers varied levels of height, catering to different postures, fostering collaboration, and providing spaces for focus and respite when needed. The palette, consisting of natural materials and sleek metals, underscores the fusion of technology and nature. Within the courtyard, bamboo acoustic wall paneling combines form and function, contributing to the overall wellness amenities of the space and an innovative bar serves as the center hub for socialization.
