The building functions as a working showroom for all three companies’
product offerings, incorporating them throughout the space. A striking
two-story entry was also created to showcase the rich history of the company,
which was founded in 1961 by Jerry Fine.
The interior design features a mix of enclosed offices and meeting spaces
within an open office floor plan. A large “town hall” serves as a multi-purpose
space for break times and impromptu meetings for employees to engage with each
other. The materials utilized on the exterior included precast concrete,
aluminum store front glazing, and a stacked stone veneer.
“The design solution reinforces the hard-working nature of this building
as it accommodates the multi-faceted business needs of Neil Enterprises while
also planning for the company’s future growth,” said Cameron Trefry,
Principal of Ware Malcomb’s Oak Brook and Chicago offices.
“It was an exciting challenge to bring so much functionality into one
space, while increasing collaboration and engagement opportunities for
employees,” said Dawn Riegel, Director, Interior Architecture &
Design of Ware Malcomb’s Oak Brook and Chicago offices.
