Designing Inspiration
The people at Corbus are doing amazing things. As they focus on developing breakthrough therapies for rare inflammatory and fibrotic diseases, we focused on designing them a new kick-ass workspace. The 30,000 SF fit-out of their HQ was designed to not only reinforce the Corbus brand, but to also create a sense of movement, through joined architectural elements and lighting, that celebrates healthy lifestyles as a counter to impact from the debilitating diseases they combat.

The 30,000 SF architectural fit-out project for this growing pharmaceutical manufacturer incorporated the reuse of a portion of workstations, finishes that capture Corbus branding, and environmental graphics that carry the brand story throughout the workplace. The space includes an all-hands café for meetings, a roof deck, as well as centrally located conference and breakout areas that promote team collaboration. LLM also designed a custom neon marquee sign that provides medical-industry news or internal spark imagery that engages staff and reinforces the importance of their mission to find a cure.
We designed custom wallpaper from abstracted graphics of inflammatory processes to celebrate the important scientific work being done in this space. We love to make art from science, and it’s even more fun when it helps create an experience that is uplifting and inspirational for the people working there--the people dedicated to finding cures for disease.

Telling the Brand Story
Both visitors and employees are taken on a visual experience of the Corbus mission, illustrated through carefully selected finishes and furniture, custom graphic wallpaper in floor-to-ceiling treatment, wall mounted thematic posters, floor graphics, and creative displays of their Who We Are, What We Do, and Where We Have Been messaging.
LLM Design not only delivered our new office space within a compressed time frame, but they also found creative ways to maximize the budget and design a brand experience that engages and inspires our employees. We now have much more than a beautiful new office. We have changed the way people experience the workplace and the Corbus Pharmaceuticals brand. We were so pleased with the process and end result that we have engaged LLM Design to design our new expansion space as well.
