AE Superlab Crafts a Versatile Manhattan Office for the Post-Pandemic Era

In deciding to move to new quarters in Manhattan, Maverick Real Estate Partners wanted to make sure its staff would relish returning to the office after the less regimented work-from-home days of the pandemic. “We did not want it to be stodgy,” says Maverick co-founder Ted Martell. “And we hoped to encourage different ways of working collaboratively.”

The company asked AE Superlab, a small 10-year-old Brooklyn architecture firm, to come up with a versatile scheme for the 8,000-square-foot space on the top floor of 330 Madison Avenue.
