Urban Ash Flooring and Shelving in Linked In Office Space

Just as we did for the first phase of this project, our product development team tapped into our urban wood program, which finds a second life for felled trees collected by municipalities, to supply materials for an office expansion in LinkedIn’s Omaha office.

Designed by Gensler, the new LinkedIn Omaha office uses their design strategy inspired by a future of flexible work spaces. Our modernist take on reclaimed wood seems a great fit for spaces designed for what’s next.

The material used for this project came from ash trees located in the state of Wisconsin that were taken down due to emerald ash bore. (Read more about the beauty and impact of urban wood.) Furthermore, the environmental impact of urban wood can be summed up:

  • Rescued city trees used rather than harvesting virgin wood  
  • Certified Red List Free
  • Low VOC, water-base and UL Greenguard gold-certified finishes throughout 
  • Hardwood, veneer plywood manufactured domestically 

When it was all said and done, 52% of the wood used in the entire project was reclaimed. To read more about this project, visit https://www.gensler.com/blog/linkedin-omaha-headquarters-fosters-community-and-equity.
