Avara Construction successfully completed the Getty Images Seattle Refresh, transforming a 10,349 SF fourth-floor space at 605 5th Ave S into a dynamic, multi-tenant office environment. As part of a 26,443 SF floor, this renovation introduced modern functionality and enhanced aesthetics while ensuring business occupancy remained uninterrupted.
The project focused on balancing open collaboration with private spaces, integrating demising partitions, glass-enclosed meeting rooms, and upgraded work areas to create a versatile and engaging workspace.
Key Project Highlights:
- Multi-Tenant Layout – The space was divided into suites, private offices, and small meeting rooms accommodating up to four people.
- Sleek Glass Meeting Rooms – Creates a transparent, modern, and collaborative work environment.
- Contemporary Design & Finishes – Cosmetic updates included new finishes, curated art installations, and lighting upgrades.
- Functional Pantry & Kitchen Areas – The existing kitchen spaces were retained and refreshed to maintain convenience.
- Acoustic & Energy Efficiency Improvements – Enhanced soundproofing, energy-efficient lighting, and MEP system updates improve functionality.
- Compliance with Seattle Building Codes – The renovation adhered to the latest accessibility and safety standards.
This thoughtfully redesigned space fosters creativity, collaboration, and efficiency, ensuring Getty Images’ Seattle office remains a cutting-edge workplace for its teams.
