Corporate Dining Terrace

expanding outdoor space for versatility

West Chester, PA | 9,000 SF

HSA worked with a longtime corporate client to refresh and expand their existing exterior dining space. The expanded dining terraces create several options for employees and their visitors. To continue productivity while enjoying the outdoors, there are covered collaboration areas to gather around large monitors. For more intimate dining, one can sit in the shade beneath a wooden trellis structure. Others may simply wish to lounge with a water feature and ivy wall as their backdrop.

The lowest terrace was intended to be informal and flexible, creating opportunities for local food trucks and yard style games with a street festival atmosphere. The use of lush landscaping and differing materials created these zones and shields the user from the adjacent loading, parking and office building. Movable furniture allows the entire space to be transformed for events and adapt as needed.
