Description
The Boardwalk
Located in the heart of Irvine, Southern California’s business hub, The Boardwalk, managed by CBRE, is a luxury office complex designed to redefine the workday with beautifully crafted outdoor spaces that inspire productivity. To achieve this vision, they looked beyond the traditional office walls and embraced a resort-style environment that seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor spaces. The Boardwalk sought Bromic’s outdoor heating expertise to enhance the comfort of its outdoor areas, allowing patrons to enjoy these spaces throughout the year.
Blurring the Lines Between Work and Relaxation
With a vision to create a work environment that catered to a contemporary workforce, their goal was to move beyond the confines of a traditional office by offering flexible and inspiring outdoor spaces that would enhance employee well-being and productivity. To achieve this, a courtyard was developed that serves as an extension of the office, blurring the lines between work and relaxation.
Set to reflect Southern California’s coastal lifestyle and resort experience, The Boardwalk needed a heating solution that would be both aesthetically pleasing and functional. In response to these needs, Bromic’s Platinum Electric heaters were specified for their durability and sleek design to transform this two-acre courtyard into a multi-use space that fosters collaboration, relaxation, and year-round enjoyment.
The 304-grade stainless steel chassis and shot-tinted ceramic glass screen provide a sleek, modern look that complements the overall design of the outdoor meeting spaces.
A Multi-Use Oasis
With Bromic Platinum E heaters installed within the pergolas, The Boardwalk’s courtyard has become a vibrant hub for various purposes. With its main use as a workspace, its outdoor space can function as an outdoor workplace where employees can utilize the heated outdoor space for meetings, brainstorming sessions, or individual work, fostering a more relaxed and collaborative environment. The Boardwalk also offers an onsite restaurant along with a cafe in its main building, and the outdoor courtyard offers employees and visitors alike a space to enjoy their meals. The comfortable warmth provided by the heaters allows employees to take a step outside for their breaks outdoors, promoting work-life balance and reducing stress.
The balance of work-life
The Boardwalk serves as a prime example of how thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces can enhance work-life balance and inspire employee well-being. By incorporating Bromic Platinum Electric heaters, The Boardwalk has created a multi-use haven that extends the office experience beyond traditional walls, fostering collaboration, relaxation, and a vibrant community atmosphere.
