Ulanguzi expands studio for third time in 9 years

New studio offers greater capacity for growth

RALEIGH, N.C. (February 2, 2010) - Ulanguzi Creative Strategies is pleased to announce their move to a new studio at 207 East Hargett Street in Downtown Raleigh. The new studio, which will house all aspects of the agency, offers several strategic advantages to both staff and clients allowing over twice the long-term expansion opportunities found in their current offices, an important factor as Ulanguzi continues to forecast strong growth in 2010 and beyond.

"Although our current Glenwood South location has offered us a unique and engaging environment," remarked Managing Partner Dylan Bost, "we are fortunate to have found such a great opportunity and location so timely with the expiration of our current lease commitments."

The new location will also offer the opportunity for Ulanguzi to create a studio environment which supports the agency's approach to growing a collaborative, design-thinking team and driving value for clients. The new studio's prime location also offers the urban energy, proximity to the best amenities and prestigious address that reflect Ulanguzi's design and business approach to successful client engagements.

"The location of our expanding studio in the Moore Square district represents Ulanguzi's continuing commitment to strengthening Downtown Raleigh's growing and diverse urban core," stated Executive Brand Director Kenneth Penkowski. "The energy and growth we see in this area of Downtown is a perfect fit with our agency's culture. It is exciting to be a part of this dynamic environment."

In April, 2001, Ulanguzi opened its doors in a street-level storefront on Hillsborough Street just blocks from the North Carolina State capital building. In 2004, the agency doubled its studio with a move just block away to Hillsborough Street at Glenwood Avenue. Their most recent moves represents the third major expansion for the agency in less than 9 years.

"Ulanguzi had a very specific vision for a new studio space," stated Shane Bull, Commercial Real Estate Advisor with Grubb & Ellis / Thomas Linderman Graham. "It required a special insight, thorough analysis and exceptional market awareness to find a space that matched both their business requirements and their creative aspirations. In the end, we are thrilled to have been able to target the perfect space for them."
