New Corporate Headquarters

This 27,680 sf, three story, new corporate headquarters for First Heritage Federal Credit Union offers employees and members a welcoming, modern, future-oriented, and flexible new facility.

Visitors enter through a lobby/gallery space that opens up into a spacious, light-filled, two-story banking hall. This lounge-like space is full of energy during the day and glows like a beacon at night. Offices with glass walls for full transparency flank the lobby and house universal tellers ready to help members as they enter the main banking hall.

Private offices, collaborative department spaces, conference rooms, training rooms, a cafeteria and impromptu collaboration areas are located throughout the upper floors.

Strong branding is integrated through colors and materials to help with wayfinding and supporting the credit union’s brand throughout the building. The integration of staff and local community involvement in the building design and in the artwork to be showcased in the gallery celebrates this geographic region renown for the art.
