Goal: After years of enormous growth within Design Resources, Inc.’s licensed apparel business, it was time to locate the entire Branded Custom Sportswear, Inc. team onto a single floor within DRI’s Overland Park headquarters. Prior to this move, the team had been spread throughout its multi-floored building.
DRI has always embodied elevated design and a strong corporate brand. With the relocation of the BCS team, it was important to create a co-branded space that reflected the mutual culture/brands of both BCS and DRI. In addition, we were directed to help craft a forward-thinking environment that would promote ergonomic work postures, provide flexibility to work both individually and collaboratively, and boost employee satisfaction and retention.

Scope: Through careful planning and innovative design, we crafted a dynamic workspace that seamlessly integrates DRI's branding while prioritizing employee comfort with features such as height-adjustable desks, monitor arms, and ergonomic seating. Herman Miller classics (Geiger Crosshatch and Eames Aluminum Group seating) were integrated throughout the space to reflect their brand aesthetic and commitment to design. Finally, we incorporated multiple conference rooms and a café to further enhance community and collaboration.
Our role involved a wide range of services, including interior furniture design planning and seamless delivery and installation by our dedicated in-house team. This comprehensive approach ensured a smooth and efficient process from start to finish.

Featured Products: Herman Miller, Geiger, Nemschoff, Muuto, JSI, Humanscale, Source International, Lite Source Inc., Enwork, and Davis

“We recently had the pleasure of working with John A. Marshall Co. on our latest expansion at Design Resources, Inc. Having worked with them for over twenty years, our company expects only the best in terms of design, product quality, and customer service from their team and, once again, they delivered. From the initial consultation, through the design phase, delivery, and installation, every step of the process was handled with care and attention to detail. All members of the team took the time to understand our needs and provided valuable insights and recommendations to ensure that we got exactly what we were looking for. Their expertise and knowledge of the products were clearly evident, making the decision-making process smooth and straightforward. When it came time for the installation, the team was prompt, efficient, and highly skilled. They handled the furniture with care, ensuring that everything was installed properly and to our specifications. Their attention to detail was remarkable, and they went above and beyond to make sure that we were completely satisfied with the end result. As always, we were extremely impressed with the quality of services provided by John A. Marshall Co. They exceeded our expectations in every way, and we would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of space planning and office furniture solutions. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to customer satisfaction are second to none.”
