Materials from the car, a café from the tire
Group 1, a Fortune 500 company with more than 200 dealerships in the U.S. and U.K., wanted a headquarters that could grow with it. Gensler drew on materials and finishes found in vehicles: leather and metal in the conference rooms, a “car body” lobby, “engine” amenity areas and a café inspired by tire treads. A hybrid layout mixes open workstations with glass-front offices; boomerang-shaped desks add privacy, and multipurpose rooms with operable walls give flexible meeting space.
