Great Lakes Coca-Cola

Alsip, Illinois

It doesn’t matter where you’re from, we can all agree that this soda distributor pops.

Our client partnered with Novak Construction and OKW to work on their employee office and distribution center in Alsip. The existing one-story space adjacent to the warehouse required a significant update to meet the demands of their workforce, which had grown in recent years.

OKW created several concepts for the existing space, expanding the office with many eye-catching branding moments, while keeping it integrated with the warehouse. Drawing on its industrial character, we used corrugated metal and glass for the façade and light woods for the interior. Graphics along the walls, along with pops of red to highlight their signature client, Coca-Cola, would tie the various different areas of the office together.

The result is a space that pays respect to our client while providing a functional and welcoming office environment for their employees.
