Fall Creek Farm & Nursery

When Fall Creek Farm & Nursery moved their Central Services to Millrace Drive in Eugene from their long-standing home on the farm, the new office became a way to reflect their evolving workplace culture and values while building a collaborative environment for the future as they continue to expand internationally.

The design incorporates a mix of open office workstations, enclosed offices, and meeting rooms of various sizes. The open office spaces are designed to protect focus and heads-down work while also promoting collaboration, cross-training, and the transfer of information among employees. The open office is balanced with spaces for concentration, privacy, and small meetings. To promote impromptu and informal meetings, group collaboration spaces are strategically located throughout the two occupied floors. Careful attention was given to the acoustic environments of various work groups, whether they be hushed or active, and to access to light and views. Where possible, enclosed offices and meeting rooms have transparent glass that creates privacy yet still allows for connectivity. In addition to workstations and meeting rooms, the remodel also included a refresh for the break room and training area as well as room for future growth.

Finishes borrow from and act as a foil to Fall Creek Farm & Nursery’s brand color palette. Vibrant blue and green accent walls, including a custom blueberry wallpaper, wood doors, and neutral furniture are set against crisp, clean white ceilings and walls. The waiting room in the entrance lobby features bold signage announcing Fall Creek’s mission of “Building a World with Better Blueberries Through Exceptional Plants, Relationships, Innovation and Customer Service.” The Owner team took special care in assigning names to the conference rooms that evoke their specific, unique culture and industry. If you visit, you need to ask the significance of the “Ranger Doug,” “White and Coville,” and “The Bin Box” meeting rooms to get a glimpse into the family that is Fall Creek Farms.
