A Fresh Space for Fresh Ideas: Mavin’s Break Room Remodel
year: 2024
type: commercial
designer: S. Flynn
style: professional, approintentional,
At S.Flynn Design + Build, we believe a well-designed workspace is about more than function—it’s about fostering connection, creativity, and comfort. When Mavin approached us to reimagine their employee break space, we saw an opportunity to create more than just a room for lunch breaks. We wanted to deliver a space that inspires and recharges the people who work there every day.
From Basic to Beautiful
01.
Before the remodel, the break area was purely utilitarian—functional, but lacking personality or warmth. Our goal was to transform it into a welcoming hub where employees could truly relax, collaborate informally, and feel valued. We took a full-scale approach, reworking the layout, finishes, lighting, and furnishings to create a completely refreshed environment
Design that Works as Hard as the Team
02.
The new break space features a mix of seating options—from café-style tables for quick bites to comfortable lounge areas for casual conversations. Durable yet stylish materials were chosen to stand up to daily use while maintaining a modern, inviting feel. The color palette blends calming neutrals with energizing accents, striking a balance between relaxation and inspiration.
Details that Make
the Difference
03.
Thoughtful lighting was a major priority—soft, warm tones replace harsh overhead glare, making the room feel cozy at any time of day. A well-planned kitchenette area gives employees everything they need to prep and enjoy meals, while smart storage keeps the space clutter
Upgrading the Conference Room
04.
In addition to the break space, we also reimagined Mavin’s conference room to better support collaboration and productivity. The redesign introduced a larger, more functional meeting table, improved acoustic elements for clearer communication, and integrated technology for seamless presentations and virtual meetings. Updated finishes and lighting bring a fresh, professional feel, making the space equally suited for brainstorming sessions, client meetings, or team celebrations
A Reflection of Company Culture
05.
Mavin’s new break space now feels like a true extension of their brand—bright, innovative, and people-focused. It’s more than a place to grab coffee; it’s a space that supports the well-being of the team and encourages those everyday moments that strengthen workplace culture.
At S.Flynn Design + Build, we love bringing spaces like this to life—places where design meets purpose, and where people feel at home even while they’re at work
