Headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama, Performance Drone Works (PDW) is a growing defense technology company specializing in unmanned systems. Business Interiors’ relationship with PDW began in Huntsville, where our team has supported multiple projects as the company has grown. In 2026, that relationship extended to Denver as PDW opened a new Engineering Hub as part of its expanding national engineering footprint.

An early visit to Denver gave our team the opportunity to experience the space and its architectural finishes firsthand. With flexibility to explore finishes and textiles, our design team drew inspiration from the space to develop a furniture palette that complemented the interior while giving the workplace a cohesive identity. Davis Partnership Architects served as the architecture firm for the project, with BI coordinating furniture placement with the Davis team to support the overall plan.

BI’s scope included 62 workstations, 12 private offices, two huddle rooms, two phone rooms, three collaborative areas, a breakroom, reception and lobby, and a wellness room. Herman Miller Canvas Vista was selected for the open work areas, helping define individual workspaces while maintaining an open feel and preserving views of the city and surrounding mountains.

The Denver project represents another step in a growing relationship between PDW and Business Interiors. With an additional phase planned in Denver, the furniture solutions developed for the new Engineering Hub are also helping establish a standard that can carry into future PDW locations and updates.
