When Abata realized that they were outgrowing their workplace in Cambridge, they capitalized on an opportunity to move its operations to Watertown, which allowed them to plan for further growth. The new construction at Arsenal Park provided them with summer views of the treetops and winter views of the Charles River. Because Abata is translated as “quiet place of peace,” the TRIA team utilized design details with this understated brand culture. The new tranquil office features an open concept with lots of natural light, preserved moss, and organic shapes to mimic the lines in the Abata logo. The interior lab glass walls feature glazing to provide semi privacy, while the exterior lab windows share views of Arsenal Park.
