BMG
BMG is the world’s fourth-biggest music company, the first new global player in the music business of the streaming age, and a record label and music publisher in one. Named in 2020 one of the world’s Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company, BMG’s pitch is unique – a relentless focus on fairness and transparency and service to its artist and songwriter clients. BMG’s 21 offices across 12 core music markets now represent over three million songs and recordings, including many of the most renowned and successful catalogs in popular music history. BMG’s fresh approach includes production music, films, books, artist management, merchandise, neighboring rights, and live as well as music publishing and recordings off the same service platform.
BMG moved into its brand-new, state-of-the-art creative complex serving its artists, songwriters, and the music industry in May 2022. Built and relocated entirely during the COVID-19 pandemic the move brings together BMG’s Los Angeles-based recordings and publishing, as well as its film, books, production music, merchandising operations, and more, all under one roof.
The newly developed flagship 30,000 square foot, two-floor, full-service music facility is conveniently located in the Mid-Wilshire district in the heart of Hollywood.
Designed to provide BMG’s employees, artists, and songwriters with a more efficient, modern, comfortable, and collaborative environment, the facility features sophisticated interior design elements with significant nods to industrial architectural style. Key design components of the connective floor plan include a fully equipped/top-of-the-line songwriter/recording room, a live performance space, state-of-the-art A/V meeting spaces and conference rooms, optimized individual listening rooms, and private breakout rooms with full A/V capability.
Tangram Construction Trades was engaged to provide architectural walls for various spaces throughout. Muraflex FINO, a thin-profiled and sleek demountable glass wall solution paired with flush wood doors and framed glass doors; and Muraflex EXPO, a telescoping door system with superior acoustics and frameless pivot doors, were provided for conference rooms, meeting rooms and private spaces. These beautiful high-end walls met the elevated standard of the surrounding environment and brought a streamlined and open feel to every space they encompassed.
