Case Study: Cowater International achieves 50% more seating and a modern, collaborative office with Cresa

Cowater International - Customer Case Study

Cowater International Inc., an Ottawa-based international development firm, faced a forced decision to renegotiate their lease or relocate after their long-standing building was sold. Their 8,000 sq. ft. space was dated and lacked capacity for a growing staff, so Cowater engaged Cresa for project management and guidance through the relocation/renovation process.

Cresa reconfigured the existing space to create a collaborative, open-plan office and optimized layout and design, increasing seating capacity by 50% without expanding square footage. The result was a dramatically improved look and feel and a satisfied workforce—“a happy staff, a happy company,” per the client—demonstrating measurable space-efficiency gains delivered by Cresa.
