The word “blitz,” meaning an energetic and concerted effort on a specific task, well represents the spirited architecture and design firm that bears this name. By applying a fresh, human-centered design approach across various scales and typologies, Blitz brings the personality, culture, and values of each client to life in physical form.
Microsoft San Francisco
Blitz designed Microsoft’s San Francisco office as a showcase for discovery, blending the tech firm’s workspace with a customer-facing technology center.
One Workplace
Central to the headquarters and showroom of One Workplace, a Silicon Valley-based furniture dealer, is the form of stacked C-shaped structures representing “collaboration” and “creativity.”
Marqeta
Monochrome breakout spaces at Marqeta’s Oakland headquarters, which provide zones for collaboration throughout the office, were inspired by boutique hotels.
Malwarebytes
Tucked beneath Malwarebytes’ main staircase is a “secret” bar that is a moment of delight and surprise within the 75,000-square-foot office.
Publicis Groupe
For the San Francisco offices of Publicis Groupe—the third-largest communications group in the world—Blitz incorporated colorful rainbow graphics, gender-neutral lavatories, and mothers’ rooms to uphold the agency’s commitment to inclusivity.
Parachute San Francisco
For Parachute’s first San Francisco brick-and-mortar retail location, Blitz layered spaces to create an immersive shopping experience with clear circulation and abundant natural light.
