CASE STUDY: CLACKAMAS COUNTY BANK Comfort meets community in an environment fueled by innovation Founded in 1911, Clackamas County Bank is the oldest community bank in Oregon. Evolving from hitching posts and water troughs to interactive transaction machines, the bank has a storied family history that includes surviving the Great Depression and being home to the first female bank president in Oregon. But throughout the years, the Bank’s Gresham branch outgrew its location, which was also rented. The bank leveraged the Association’s Office Depot program to re- ceive additional discounting for this project. In December 2018, the ground was broken for the new 8,400-square-foot two-story office with multiple amenities, and Workspace Interiors was there from the beginning. RENDERING RESULTS, FROM START TO FINISH Because Clackamas County Bank hadn’t built a new facility in decades, having a consultative approach was essential. Workspace Interiors presented a variety of “good,” “better” and “best” design options to the bank’s stakeholders. The entire project was rendered in 3D color images of the actual furniture and finishes to help members of the project team clearly visualize the results so that they could make informed and unanimous selections during each step of the project. These options were then provided to the bank’s interior design firm. Workspace Interiors also provided specifications and handled all installation of the furniture. OPTIMIZING ENVIRONMENTS AND MAXIMIZING VALUE Presentations and ongoing interface from Workspace Interiors reassured everyone involved of the value that Workspace Inte- riors provided. Thanks to the partnership, Clackamas County Bank was able to leverage a reserved manufacturing and ship- ping schedule. Workspace Interiors received the bank’s products and stored them locally to meet the bank’s opening date. During that time, weekly meetings were held in-person in Oregon, along with videoconferencing and phone meetings so that the bank could select components and elements that would help bring its new location to life. From design to build, every component of the project shared a singular focus: be inviting to the community and customers of Clackamas County Bank. With the addition of a large community room that includes amenities such as a full kitchen and outdoor deck with fireplace — as well as private conference rooms — the bank is now able to extend invitations to local nonprofits as well as to their customers to reserve and use these spaces. Partner with Workspace Interiors to gain extensive expertise in ex- isting trends, proven solutions and innovative products, so you can get the most out of your workplace — from concept to completion. w To learn more, call 877-543-0944, email info@officedepot.com or visit WorkspaceInteriorsOD.com.
