Driving the creative process

Dotdash Meredith, one of the world’s largest digital and print publishers with brands such as PEOPLE, Food & Wine, Magnolia, Brides, InStyle, and Lifewire, envisioned a new headquarters with physical space inspiration and flexibility, and an AV tech stack that would help drive the creative process. The 2-floor, 55,000 square foot space includes audiovisual systems integrated by USIS AV as well as USIS IT & Communications Infrastructure/ Structured Cabling and Security and Access Control.

​

Key spaces allow for spontaneous social interaction and teamworking including multiple open areas and huddle rooms with video collaboration capabilities. The Reception Area 3x3 Planar Video Wall serves as a source of creative inspiration displaying videos, social media feeds, and company content. In addition, Reception when combined with the adjacent Flex space, allows for inclusive town halls providing a true sense of community. The Flex space also serves as a training and event room complete with 98” large format display and presentation and video conferencing capabilities. An open Screening Lounge with large format display and high-performance audio encourages organic collaboration and creativity.

​

The full project includes multiple AV-centric and AV-enhanced spaces including Boardroom, Conference Rooms, Private Offices, Open Collaboration Areas, Reception with Video Wall, Flex Training and Event Room, Tech Rooms, Screening Lounges, Huddle Rooms, and Phone Rooms.
