ATLANTA, GA –Atlanta-based
design firm Cooper Carry is creating a new work environment for eVestment, the
global leader in institutional investor data and analytics.
In Summer 2016, the
software company is moving its corporate headquarters from Marietta, Georgia to
100 Glenridge Point Parkway at Perimeter Center in Atlanta.
“As a forward-thinking
tech company, eVestment sought a collaborative design that would accommodate
dynamic growth quickly, support its fast paced business, and provide employee
comfort and life balance,” said Kim
Rousseau, principal of Cooper Carry’s interior design studio.
“We decided to create a
loft office environment with a dynamic stair connecting workers on different
floors; standardize a singular workstation size; provide key amenities, such as
a robust fitness center and a large gathering break area connected to an
exterior deck via garage doors; and lots of natural light. It’s a creative
evolution of the start up garage.”
Cooper Carry’s workspace
design transforms this traditional suburban office building into a tech-style
village adding enhanced outdoor gathering spaces and additional green space.
Inside there is an industrial chic sophistication with communal seating including
plywood picnic tables, bar-style stools, open work stations and even graffiti
walls.

“Since beginning this project, we have been mindful of infusing this workspace with functional features that promote open dialogue and innovation while creating an inspirational place where the employees feel like they are part of something great,” added Rousseau.
“We believe this design creates a dynamic
environment that represents eVestment, and ultimately, will prove to be an
extremely efficient and enjoyable use of space.”
eVestment’s new
headquarters includes more than 75,000 square feet, encompassing three complete
floors and two partial floors of the five story building. As eVestment grows,
it has additional expansion opportunities within the building and office park.
Founded in 2000, eVestment
has experienced significant growth over the past eight years, doubling its
revenue and employee headcount nearly every two years. Since 2014, the company
has hired about 200 new employees worldwide. In Atlanta, the company now
employs about 230 people, with a total global workforce of about 350
individuals.
“The design Cooper Carry created met our goals
of an efficient, collaborative and fun workplace setting,” said eVestment
co-founder Heath Wilson. “We wanted
to create an environment that would support our growth, help us attract and
retain top talent and be conducive to creating innovative solutions that meet
our clients’ needs.”
