An immaculate office space lets this foundation focus on innovation
Canada Foundation for Innovation is an organization that funds cutting edge research in all disciplines. They engaged Bryan Wiens, ARIDO and the team at LWG Architectural Interiors to create a space that reflects the professionalism of their organizational culture, with a focus on a clean, transparent aesthetic – unencumbered by extraneous design elements.
Project Name: Canada Foundation for Innovation
Lead Designers: Bryan Wiens, ARIDO; Colette St-Denis Jolicoeur, ARIDO; Andrea Gravelle, Intern ARIDO

The foundation's gray and red branding is incorporated throughout the space via flooring and furniture, while pops of red add subtle sparks of interest. Art that recalls the innovations in science and technology lines the walls of the staff canteen, further emphasizing the organizations' mission to the team.
