Designing Spaces Where Innovation Happens
West Lafayette is more than a college town—it’s a thriving center for research, technology, and forward-thinking organizations. At RDS Office Furniture, we’ve had the privilege of partnering on projects that support this energy—creating workspaces that are functional, flexible, and designed for the way people work today.
From innovation hubs to coworking environments, our work in West Lafayette reflects a deep understanding of how thoughtful furniture solutions can elevate a space.
Partnering with the Purdue Research Foundation
A key part of our work in West Lafayette has been supporting projects connected to the Purdue Research Foundation, an organization dedicated to advancing innovation, research, and economic development.
One of the most notable collaborations was at the Convergence Center for Innovation and Collaboration on Purdue’s campus. This space was designed to bring together startups, global companies, researchers, and students—all in one environment built for idea exchange.

RDS Office Furniture provided furnishings for the Carr Workplaces coworking space within the building, including:
Private offices designed for focus and comfort
Open workstations that encourage flexibility
Meeting rooms built for collaboration and productivity
Lounge areas that foster connection and creativity
Every piece was selected to support a diverse group of users while maintaining a cohesive, modern aesthetic.
Supporting Innovative Workspaces and Growing Companies

West Lafayette continues to attract innovative organizations, and we’ve been proud to contribute to projects for companies like Inari as well as dynamic coworking environments such as Purdue Railyard.
Each of these spaces required a thoughtful, tailored approach:
Inari – A cutting-edge agricultural technology company, where spaces needed to reflect innovation, collaboration, and scientific precision. Furniture selections supported both focused work and team interaction.
Purdue Railyard – A vibrant coworking space designed for entrepreneurs, startups, and remote professionals. Here, flexibility was key—featuring a mix of open seating, private work areas, and collaborative zones that adapt to a variety of working styles.
These projects highlight our ability to create environments that support both individual productivity and shared innovation.
Thoughtful Design for Modern Workspaces
Projects in West Lafayette consistently reinforce one thing—furniture plays a critical role in how a space performs.
We help our clients create environments that include:
Flexible layouts that evolve with their teams
Ergonomic seating and workstations for comfort and productivity
Modern, refined aesthetics that align with their brand
Efficient space planning to maximize every square foot

Whether it’s a research facility, corporate office, or collaborative hub, our goal is always the same: create a space that works beautifully and functions seamlessly.
