VIP Architectural Associates worked with Gerharz Equipment, a local restaurant equipment supply company, to transform their existing 30,000sf facility into bright and welcoming offices and showroom spaces.

VIP’s design balances the industrial character of the existing building with Gerharz’s contemporary brand, resulting in pops of color that set the tone for an enjoyable experience. Bold signage effortlessly leads buyers throughout the space, linking to a large and engaging showroom that showcases furniture, equipment, and other design elements for creating or updating restaurants. Additional unique features of the space include:

• Open offices flank the showroom and foster easy interaction between the Gerharz team and their clients
• A state-of-the-art test kitchen offering hands-on learning for the equipment’s operation
• A glass-walled conference room
• A sky-lit library
