Skender starts interior construction of Paragon HQ

CHICAGO - Skender Construction recently launched the interior renovation of the future 23,000-square-foot headquarters for Paragon Biosciences LLC, a life science innovator that invests in, builds and advises bioscience companies.

Paragon will be relocating to the 35th floor of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe-designed 330 N. Wabash from its current office space in Northbrook.

Paragon's new technology-rich office space will offer a wide range of amenities to support a highly collaborative and productive workplace. Key spaces include open office workstation areas, private offices, conference rooms of varying size, two reception areas, a warming pantry and large cafe. A drywall cloud component will extend through much of the space and be featured in branded signage mounted on the walls. Additionally, the reception and cafe areas will feature large format tile.

Skender is collaborating with Gensler and CBRE to complete the project in Fall 2019.
