Wellness-Focused Workplace Interior Design for Real Estate Developers

For The Vestcor Companies, a native Jacksonville business comprised of real estate professionals developing quality multi-family communities, completing the design of its newly renovated San Marco headquarters was essential to the continued pursuit of expanding its diverse portfolio of commercial real estate.

Vestcor envisioned an office interior design that supports employee wellness, flexibility, and greater productivity. Furnishings made of high-quality materials, and designed to last, are products Vestcor sought to meet evolving organizational needs. Managing office furniture design and workspace furniture installation required a trusted partner with a proven record of service excellence and robust product offerings.

As a North Florida leader of commercial furniture interiors and premier Steelcase furniture supplier, Perdue worked with Vestcor and Group 4 Design to curate a sustainable office move solution. From onsite project management to high-level procurement of new office interior products, we crafted a design of interchangeable furnishings to compliment diverse work styles, integrating height-adjustable workstations, modular walls, and high-performance task chairs from Steelcase’s deep catalog of premium products.

“Perdue set themselves apart from the moment we walked in the door for our first tour of their office furniture showroom,” said Jessica White, Senior Interior Designer for Group 4 Design. “The client-focused attention and collaborative approach gave me confidence in their ability to deliver a product that blended seamlessly with the architectural interiors and met Vestcor’s vision for their office.”

Impacted by construction delays, we ensured timelines aligned with site conditions and project schedules. Alongside our workplace technology partners and sister company, Phase Integration, we intertwined Vestcor’s furniture landscape with cutting-edge digital elements, such as a commercial sound system and smart-badge security access, for better employee experiences.

“We had a great experience working with Perdue and Phase Integration on the furniture for our new office space. The entire team was very knowledgeable during the selection and ordering process,” said Holly Hepler, Marketing Manager for The Vestcor Companies. “They were extremely responsive to questions that arose before, during and after install. The workstations and office systems look modern and function nicely. We are happy with our office space and the beautiful furniture Perdue provided.”

The design features a variety of Steelcase products, from Await lounge systems and Karman office chairs to height-adjustable Currency Enhanced and Migration SE desk systems.
