Over two weeks ago, concerns around Covid-19 prompted our in house Task Force and IT team to transition everyone in our office to remote work. In a matter of days, we were up and running with the same efficiency and support as when physically in the office. During our first virtual all staff meeting, we held a showcase of everyone’s remote workstations; a virtual version of the popular “What’s on Your Desk” blog feature. From a secluded workbench in the basement, allowing escape from interruption, to a home library with an amazing view, people across the Studio shared pictures of their home workstations. Most importantly, seeing everyone in our now vastly extended office provided much needed connection and lots of laughs during this time of geographic separation.

With its dramatic stainless steel exterior, EXP harmonizes with ISEC’s organic form language, forming an iconic science and engineering hub.
