A retreat that balances productivity and play
Teams needed a place to run quarterly planning sessions without feeling like they rented another bland conference room. The Scandi brief asked for Scandinavian calm, Dallas swagger, and zero compromises on entertainment.
We layered blonde woods, charcoal slate, and warm brass with programmable lighting scenes so the space can flip from brainstorm to celebration in seconds.
Every room includes blackout drapes, work surfaces, and ergonomic seating so executives can crash, recharge, and jump into the next block fully reset.
Material palette combining blonde oak, charcoal slate, and warm brass for Scandinavian calm meets Dallas swagger.
Game loft with tournament-grade ping-pong and foosball for team bonding between sessions.
Executive bedroom with blackout drapes, work surface, and ergonomic seating for focused work blocks.

How do you balance productivity and play?
We frame the day like a circuit—whiteboard in the morning, focus work in the sunlit bedrooms, and decompression rituals around the fire each night.
Which maintenance hacks keep the space guest-ready?
Performance fabrics, labeled storage, and a "tech check" list (Wi-Fi speed, streaming inputs, smart-lock battery levels) before every turnover.
