News for the Hospitality Executive |
Atlanta – June 1, 2011 –
The Rainmaker
Group, a world leader in automated profit
optimization
software and revenue
management
services for the multifamily housing and hospitality industries,
announced that
its new corporate offices have earned the prestigious 2011 Gold Design
Award
from the Georgia Chapter of the American Society of Interior
Designers. Carson Guest, Rainmaker’s design firm, won the
highly competitive award in the category of corporate offices over
10,000
square feet.
New space inspires spontaneous creativity in a welcoming ‘corporate home’ Having outgrown previous space
with employees in
three separate buildings, Rainmaker’s co-founders, Bruce Barfield and
Tammy
Farley, wanted to bring everyone under one roof to foster creativity
and teamwork.
“Our goal was to design an office that was not only attractive and
inviting, but
also one suited for collaborative processes in developing our revenue
management solutions,” said Bruce Barfield, President of The Rainmaker
Group. “We wanted our new space to be comfortable
and facilitate spontaneous innovative creativity among our scientists
and
developers. At the same time, we wanted
offices to warmly welcome clients to our new home. Carson Guest
struck this balance perfectly,
and we are pleased they won this esteemed design award.”
Carson Guest design captures Rainmaker culture of innovation with a focus on client success “Rainmaker may be high-tech, but they are also high-touch with a committed problem-solving approach focused on client success,” said John Guest, Carson Guest COO. “The company’s team-based workforce needed an open, casual environment where staff could easily brainstorm and develop creative solutions for clients. We created a uniquely modern design and incorporated areas throughout the space for impromptu touch-down meetings with mobile tables and chairs. We also used white marker board paint on entire walls to encourage creativity and imagination.” Sustainable design demonstrates that beauty can mean business Carson Guest’s light-filled,
green design includes
durable, sustainable finishes dramatically highlighted by bright, yet
indirect long-life
lighting. Floor-to-ceiling windows with views to nature
abound, and corridors are curved to create added dimension.
Rainmaker’s corporate logo in the reception
lobby is a unique visual signature backed by translucent resin that
glows with
the sunlight during the day and is front-lighted in the evening.
Glass walls with frosted film accents and
soothing eggshell paint are interrupted by pops of color from vivid
green
accents, art, and other distinctive design details. John Guest
added that “All these elements
convey Rainmaker’s corporate culture of creativity and excellence
fostered in a
comfortable, welcoming setting. We’re
proud to have designed such a modern, inviting, and functional office
space
that will expand as Rainmaker continues to grow.” Click
