Henricksen announced the opening of its Washington DC Experience Center, located on the fifth floor of 1725 I St. in Washington, D.C., and the rebrand of Cofco, a Henricksen Company to Henricksen.
The Henricksen Washington DC Experience Center will serve as a place for the community and the AEC industry to gather for events, meetings, continuing education and networking. It will also provide staff with a refreshed work environment that enables them to showcase diverse and innovative ways of working. The new space will facilitate an interactive experience and serve as catalyst for the industry and local community to see workspaces in a different way.
Cofco was acquired by Henricksen in 2022. The rebrand to Henricksen in Washington, D.C. will bring national name recognition to the talented local team and enhance their established regional industry relationships.
“When we move to the new Experience Center, we will be branded Henricksen, but we are the same team. We wanted to showcase how well we know and understand the DC market through the design of the space,” said Kelly Hogan, vice president of operations.
The new space is designed around different iconic Washington DC locations which represent different styles of working. As an example, the formal conference room is designated the “Library of Congress” and features rich woods, soft luggage leather, a bust of Washington, and gold frames of the United States presidents and the CEO of Henricksen. In contrast, the all-day café is designated “Union Market” and features industrial lighting and bench seating to reflect the atmosphere of Union Market itself.
The Henricksen name will be reflected on all Washington, D.C. materials beginning in May, including bid responses, presentations, invoices, email addresses and website.
