The principal at Studio Paul Toney, Michelle Toney has worked on the office design for the production company Maximum Effort by Ryan Reynolds. The new workplace brings attention to comfort from an angle that pushes for a residential-style setting. The designer aimed to transform the space that once was the headquarters of a law firm, which was more cold in aesthetics and lacked details that brought a warmer appeal. Toney turned attention to the culture of the company as inspiration to really create a more relaxed space and resonate closely with the young creatives of the team as a whole. Toney shares, “They wanted a home base that they could use for typical work functions and social activities."
