Office Design in Denver
Pear Project Services provides full-service office design and space planning across Denver and the Front Range — workplace strategy, layout design, furniture specification, and project management from one team. 40+ years of designing offices that work for how Denver teams actually use them.
Whether you’re planning a new buildout, refreshing an existing floor, or rebalancing for hybrid work, we design spaces with one major advantage: the same team that lays out your floor plan executes the install. No vendor handoffs, no rendering-to-reality gaps, no waiting months for furniture to arrive after the design is done. Designs become working offices in weeks.

Most Denver office design firms hand you a beautiful rendering and disappear when it’s time to actually build the space. We do it differently. As both a design firm and an execution partner, we plan your space, spec the furniture, manage the project, and walk the finished office with you — all under one accountability.
Our office design services in Denver cover the full project lifecycle: workplace strategy and floor plan, furniture specification, vendor coordination, ergonomic and acoustic planning, installation, and post-move adjustments. We work with the brands that built the modern office — Herman Miller, Steelcase, Haworth, Knoll, Teknion, Kimball, Allsteel, HON — and specify the right pieces from each based on your design intent.
We serve companies across Denver, Boulder, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, and Greeley — from 10-person startups to 500-person corporate buildouts.

You Signed the Lease. Now You Have an Empty Floor.
5,000 sq ft of bare concrete and exposed ductwork. Your architect handed back permits, your contractor is mid-buildout, and somebody needs to figure out what actually goes inside. The hire dates are real. The new-furniture lead times are 10–14 weeks.
Pear Project designs the layout, specs the furniture, and manages the install — usually within weeks of design approval. Your team walks into a working office on day one.

Office design covers a lot of ground depending on what you’re trying to do. Here’s what Denver clients hire us for most often.
- Space Planning. Layout design for new offices or major reconfigurations. We translate your headcount, work modes, and floor plan into a workable layout — workstations, conference rooms, focus zones, collaboration areas, and circulation paths that actually flow.
- Workplace Strategy. Before layout: what should the space DO? We help define the mix of open vs private, focus vs collaboration, fixed vs hot-desking. Output is a brief that drives the design rather than guessing-and-revising.
- Furniture Specification and Selection. Choosing the right chairs, desks, cubicles, workstations, reception furniture, conference furniture, and storage for each zone — coordinated to the design intent.
- New Office Buildouts. Full design for new offices — from concept through furniture install. Common for startups moving to first dedicated space, expansion offices, and companies relocating to new buildings.
- Hybrid-Office Redesigns. Reconfiguring fixed-seating offices for hybrid work — hot-desk conversion, conference room redistribution, collaboration zone expansion, focus-room addition.
- Executive Office Design. Private offices, partner suites, and C-suite spaces. Specialty furniture, premium materials, brand-aligned aesthetics. Pair with our executive office furniture.
- Reception and Lobby Design. First-impression spaces — reception desk placement, lobby seating arrangement, brand integration. Pair with our reception furniture.
- Conference Room Layouts. Boardrooms, training rooms, huddle spaces, video conferencing setups. We design for AV integration, acoustic performance, and the way meetings actually happen.
- Refresh and Re-Specification. Existing office that’s tired or out of date but doesn’t need a full redesign. We refresh specific zones, swap aging furniture, and update aesthetics without a full overhaul.
- Project Management and Coordination. Vendor coordination across furniture install, office relocation, IT, electrical, and contractors. One project manager, one timeline, one accountability point.

Your Office Was Built for 100 People. Forty Come In on Tuesdays.
Half the workstations sit empty most days. The conference rooms are overbooked. The kitchen is dead at lunch. Hybrid work changed everything about how your space gets used — but the floor plan still thinks it's 2019.
A hybrid-mode office design from Pear converts fixed seating to hot-desk benching, downsizes underused zones, expands collaboration spaces, and makes the space actually match how your team works now. Often using furniture you already own, plus targeted swaps where needed.

Every office design project follows the same proven sequence. Pear has refined this over 40 years of Denver buildouts.
- Discovery and brief. We start with a conversation about your business, your team, your work modes, and your timeline. Output: a written brief that names what success looks like for the space.
- Floor plan and space study. Working from your floor plan (or one we generate from your CAD/lease docs), we sketch layout options that fit your headcount, conference room needs, focus zones, and circulation requirements. Multiple options when warranted, one recommendation when there’s a clear best fit.
- Furniture specification. We spec every piece — workstations, chairs, conference tables, reception furniture, storage — coordinated to the design intent and your budget.
- 3D rendering and walkthrough (when requested). For larger projects, we produce 3D renderings so stakeholders can see the design before committing. Adjustments are easier in a rendering than a built space.
- Quote and budget alignment. Full pricing with line items by zone, by furniture type, and by service. No surprises later.
- Procurement and project coordination. Once approved, we pull inventory, schedule delivery, coordinate with your IT and contractors, and lock in the install date. We’re the single point of accountability across vendors.
- Delivery and installation. Our install team handles delivery, placement by layout, cable management, lock keying, and final positioning. Most installs complete in 1–3 days depending on size.
- Post-install walkthrough and adjustments. We walk the completed space with you, adjust placements as needed, and confirm everything is functioning. Most projects need 1–2 small post-install tweaks — we handle them.

What Most People Don’t Know About Office Design in Denver
The design details competitors don’t write about — but every Denver office manager and operations lead should know before signing a design contract.
- Density math: 150–250 sq ft per person. Open offices: ~150 sq ft per seat including shared space. Cubicle offices: ~180 sq ft. Mixed (some private offices): ~225 sq ft. Heavy private office: ~250+ sq ft. A 5,000 sq ft floor fits roughly 20–33 people depending on configuration. Most lease decisions are made before this math is done — and most regret comes from underestimating.
- Conference room ratio: 1 seat per 8–10 desk seats. Hybrid offices need more conference room capacity, not less — when people come in, they come in to collaborate. Old offices were typically 1:15. Modern offices target 1:8. Underbuilt conference space is the single most common Denver office design regret.
- Circulation requirements eat 15–25% of your floor. Corridors, ADA-compliant aisles, fire egress paths, and entry zones consume meaningful square footage. Designers who skip this in the napkin math end up with crowded floors.
- Acoustic zoning is the #1 complaint of new offices. Hard surfaces (glass, polished concrete, exposed ceilings) reflect sound. Cubicle panels and soft seating absorb it. Open offices need acoustic strategy or your team will hate the space within a month. NRC 0.7+ on key surfaces is the minimum spec.
- Daylight access matters for retention. WELL Building Standard recommends 75% of workstations have access to daylight within 25 feet. Cubicle layouts that put introverts in the corner away from windows correlate with higher turnover. Design considers it explicitly.
- Lighting standards are codified. IES guidelines specify 30 foot-candles at desk level for general office work. Conference rooms need 30–50. Reception areas need 20–30. Most existing offices fail this standard — replacement lighting is one of the cheapest upgrades with the highest impact.
- Power and data are the hidden cost layer. New workstations typically need new electrical work — $200–$500 per workstation in contractor labor. Designing for pre-wired cubicle systems eliminates that entire line item. We factor this in upfront.
- Move timing is everything. Designing during the lease negotiation phase saves you from leasing the wrong space. Designing after lease signing is reactive — you fit the design to the space you already paid for. Best practice: bring us in 30–60 days before lease signing.
- Hybrid work changed the ratios. If 40% of your team is in-office on a typical day, you don’t need 100 dedicated workstations — you need 50 fixed + 30 hot-desk + 20 collaboration. The math changes everything about layout. Most existing offices haven’t adjusted yet.
- Design + execution under one roof eliminates the rendering-to-reality gap. Traditional design firms hand you a beautiful rendering, then you hire a separate furniture vendor, separate installer, separate move coordinator. Each handoff is a chance for the actual space to drift from the design. We execute what we design — what you see in the rendering is what gets installed.

Office Design Denver — Frequently Asked Questions
What does office design include at Pear Project Services?
Full-service office design in Denver covers workplace strategy, floor plan and space planning, furniture specification, 3D rendering (when needed), project management across vendors, delivery and installation, and post-install adjustments. We’re not just a design firm — we’re a design and execution partner combined, which means designs become working offices in weeks rather than months.
How long does an office design project take in Denver?
Most projects deliver in 4–8 weeks from discovery to walkthrough. Discovery and brief: 1 week. Layout and furniture spec: 1–2 weeks. Procurement and install: 2–4 weeks. Compare this to traditional design firms that hand you a rendering and you wait 10–14 weeks for furniture to arrive separately.
How much does office design cost in Denver?
Pricing depends on square footage, complexity, and furniture spec. Most projects scope to a fixed design fee plus the furniture and install. Because we manage the full lifecycle in-house — no vendor markup, no separate furniture dealer fees — total project cost is typically 30–50% lower than designs that go through separate vendors.
Can you design a small office in Denver?
Yes. We design offices from 1,000 sq ft up to 50,000+ sq ft. Small spaces get more careful attention to furniture footprint and circulation — there’s no room to waste. Most small-office projects deliver fully designed and installed within 4 weeks.
How many people fit in a Denver office of [X] sq ft?
Open office: ~150 sq ft per seat. Cubicle/workstation office: ~180 sq ft per seat. Mixed (some private offices): ~225 sq ft per seat. Heavy private office: ~250+ sq ft per seat. A 5,000 sq ft floor fits roughly 20–33 people depending on configuration. We help you do the math before signing a lease.
Can you redesign my office for hybrid work?
Yes — it’s one of our most common 2026 project types. Hybrid redesigns typically reduce fixed workstations, convert to hot-desk benching, expand collaboration and conference space, and add focus rooms. We often reuse existing furniture where possible and supplement with targeted purchases.
Do you offer 3D renderings of office designs?
Yes, for larger projects where stakeholders need to visualize the space before committing. For smaller projects, 2D floor plans and reference imagery are usually sufficient and faster. We recommend renderings when budget allows or when multiple decision-makers need alignment.
Do you handle the install too, or just design?
We handle both. Furniture installation is part of our service — same team, same project manager, same accountability. You don’t coordinate between a design firm and an install vendor. If you’re also moving offices, we handle that piece too.
Can you serve clients outside Denver?
Yes. We design and install offices across the entire Front Range, including Boulder, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Greeley, and metro Denver suburbs.
When should I bring in office design — before or after signing the lease?
Before. The single most common Denver office regret is leasing the wrong space because design wasn’t part of the lease decision. Best practice: bring us in 30–60 days before lease signing. We can confirm the space fits your headcount, identify deal-breakers early, and design with the actual floor plan in mind.
