Jan. 26, 2010 - PRLog -- Atlanta, GA – Tonight, January 26th, 2010, the German American Chamber of Commerce of the Southern US, Inc. (GACC South) will celebrate the grand opening of its new office facilities at the White Provision building on the Westside of Atlanta. In attendance will be over 300 members of the GACC South, members of the Atlanta business community, several fellow bi-lateral chambers of commerce, and government officials including Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed, Senator Jeff Mullis and Senator Judson Hill of the Georgia State Senate, Representative Ron Stephens, Atlanta City Council Member Kwanza Hall, and Commissioner Kenneth C. Stewart.

The GACC South is excited to share its new home with the community, and looking forward to presenting the space to its members, who are encouraged to take advantage of the resources the new office provides. In addition to a wide variety of meeting spaces, the GACC South has also developed a large business incubator space on-site, with plans to expand it even further.

“This is a unique space that fits the character of our organization. We wanted to keep the unique loft and warehouse feel that customers enjoyed about our previous location while being able to create synergy by putting our departments together. We could not be more pleased with the space,” stated Kristian Wolf, President and CEO of GACC South.

Square Feet Studio, Inc., a full-service architecture, planning and design firm worked with the GACC South to complete the new office, located on the third floor of a former meatpacking building that overlooks downtown and midtown Atlanta. The design kept sustainability in mind, with a large focus on natural lighting and open space. German products are featured throughout the space including kitchen cabinetry by Poggenpohl, appliances by Bosch, door and glass hardware by Bayerle and Dorma and furniture by VS America, Inc.
