Mulhall’s Garden + Home: Omaha, Nebraska

The Maple Campus office, which is located in the Mulhall’s Garden + Home store in Omaha, Nebraska, was designed using an open layout to foster collaborative discussion.
The Maple Campus breakroom, located in the Garden + Home store, is modern and bright, and offers team members an open space to catch up with coworkers or recharge throughout the day.
The plaza outside the pavilion of the Garden + Home store, which is still in progress, will be an open space for people to gather and hang out amongst native plants, says Jocelyn Houston, marketing and brand manager.
