HF Capital

Barber McMurry's renovation within the historic Pembroke building established a new headquarters for HF Capital, celebrating the original architecture.

The design prioritizes easy circulation and the feel of an open office — while also allowing for visual and acoustic privacy. The interior design reveals and restores original terrazzo floors, renews window openings covered by prior renovations, and celebrates the building's historic detailing. A palette of white and storm blue, with warm tones of natural wood, leather and black metal lend the space depth and clarity.

HF Capital’s offices, conference rooms, lounge areas, and employee breakroom are unified by glass partitions throughout the space, allowing natural light to filter throughout. Adjustable shades and fluted glazing panes offer visual privacy. In each office, lighting controls allow users to customize their lighting levels — improving comfort and productivity and reducing eye strain. Laminated interior glazing improves acoustics, as do ribbed wood feature walls in the conference rooms.
