Shopify Headquarters, Ottawa, Canada.

The SpaceShopify’s headquarters in Ottawa Canada is a creative innovation hub that accomodates over 800 employees. The overall space includes high functioning office design to ensure an innovative and collaborative workplace focused not just on productivity, but also on employee health and well-being.

The ChallengeShopify wanted an open and collaborative environment in a space that was dominated by hard surfaces (concrete, hardwoods and steel). High ceilings and lack of interior walls added to the acoustic challenge. HUSH came to the rescue.

Shopify was looking for a solution to reduce noise, control sound and echo in an open office environment. There are 24 HUSH Round fixtures installed in Shopify’s headquarters.

“We wanted a lighting fixture that combined sound and lighting properties but with a cool aesthetic. HUSH was the perfect solution.” Josee Anne Pronovos - Linebox, Lead Project Architect

“Open concept offices and ‘team sharing’ provide many advantages to employers and the corporate culture. They are however problematic when it comes to sound quality as there are so many hard surfaces that the spaces start to sound cacophonic”.

Sound control and design were incredibly important to Shopify. The HUSH was chosen for their “Genius” call centre, where people are on the phone all the time. The fixture provided a whimsical approach to acoustics as well as provided a soft ambient lighting solution for the workspace.”

-Glenn Boccini – Dark Tools Lighting Consultant & Showroom Owner
