CASE STUDY EXAMPLE:
Yodle, NY

Yodle, a leading innovator in local online marketing, sought a modern, functional office space in New York City that would inspire collaboration, productivity, and innovation. The 84,000 sq. ft. office, designed by HLW International LLP, spanned three floors and aimed to create an environment that combined openness and community with spaces tailored for focused work. PK30 System played an essential role in bringing this vision to life by providing cutting-edge glass partitions, swing doors, and operable wall systems that seamlessly integrated style and functionality.

Challenge

Yodle’s dynamic business model demanded a workspace that could balance aesthetics with flexibility and accessibility.

The design needed to achieve:

• An open, collaborative environment that maintained visual connectivity throughout.
• A seamless and welcoming main entrance without floor tracks, ensuring accessibility and an uninterrupted design flow.
• Durable and adaptable materials capable of withstanding daily use in a high-traffic environment.

Each element of the project had to align with Yodle’s innovative culture and brand identity, while meeting strict functional requirements.

PK30 System partnered with HLW International to develop a customized solution tailored to Yodle’s needs:

• Main Entrance: A six-panel bi-fold operable wall system featuring sleek, minimalist aluminum frames and glass panels. This system provided a trackless solution, delivering both visual impact and accessibility.
• Glass Partitions: Eight fixed glass panels and an ADA-compliant swing door created clear divisions while maintaining a sense of openness and natural light flow.
• Design Features: Satin black anodized aluminum frames paired with polished glass surfaces offered a sophisticated and contemporary aesthetic, perfectly complementing Yodle’s brand.

PK30’s systems ensured flexibility, durability, and a modern edge that aligned with the project’s overall design goals.

• Enhancing Collaboration: Open sightlines and seamless transitions fostered a more connected and innovative workspace.
