The interior transformation for the future 100,000 SF headquarters of Lighthouse Credit Union’s new location in Dover, NH is nearing completion.
In July of 2022, Maugel DeStefano partnered with Lighthouse Credit Union (formerly Northeast Credit Union) to provide guidance during the site selection process. After careful consideration, Northeast Credit Union chose the building at 100 Education Way. The exterior of the building went through a complete transformation by PROCON, the Architect of Record and design-builder, who incorporated new facade materials.
After conducting in-depth programming and collaborative envisioning sessions with each department, several key design influences came to the forefront: a strong emphasis on incorporating natural light, prioritizing employee well-being, optimizing a hybrid work model, and fostering collaboration and creativity. Maugel DeStefano's interiors team approached the design with a biophilic mindset, exploring the connection between humans and nature, and selected natural materials that harmonized with the landscape, creating an organic, modern aesthetic.
