Built in the late 1960s as an electronics manufacturing plant, later adopted as the Floral Trade Center, now a model of purposeful redevelopment. MAKE is a 175,000 square foot office project for California’s forward thinking companies who value a higher quality experience for their employees. 400 yards from the ocean in Carlsbad, CA, MAKE has been created to inspire productivity and maximize workplace happiness.

Indoor and outdoor work spaces integrate seamlessly, allowing Carlsbad’s ideal climate to stimulate ideas and nurture well-being. A section of roof was removed to create an L-shaped breezeway through the building, welcoming in natural daylight and ocean air.

We’re all more productive and happier when we pump oxygen to our brain and body. Whatever your chosen method for activating your best self, our fitness center staff has you covered. Group classes, personal training, bike share, surfboard storage, indoor and outdoor showers, it’s all integrated into a day’s work.

An old shipping container has taken on new life as a café, operated by the Coffee/Tea/Food enthusiasts of Copa Vida. Take it to-go, or sit in the outdoor patio area and enjoy with a colleague. Copa Vida also customizes coffee programs for each company, bringing the coffee to the suite.

MAKE was designed and built with mindfulness toward how today’s office users want to interact – with each other and with their environment. Large sliding glass doors allow coastal breezes to condition the indoor work spaces.

Several areas on the MAKE campus are designed to invite meaningful interaction. The outdoor amphitheater is a gathering space for more than just classic movies.
