Check Out Our New Digs


We've put together a photo tour of the space, along with more information on the partners that made it all possible. Located at 2099 Thunderhead Road, the innovative design was created within the conventional leased office space of Northshore Town Center and features eco-friendly elements and décor purchased from Knoxville-area vendors.


Pyxl has come a long way in the past few years. What was once a traditional advertising agency is now a full-service, innovative digital marketing firm driven by a young, creative staff. So when the time came to design our new office, we knew the space had to match the mindset of those that would be working inside it. Our new workspace is open to inspire teamwork and fuel creativity while still supporting the local economy and remaining environmentally conscious.


How are we green?

As a company that has been virtually paperless for over a year, it was important for us to create a responsible workspace to mirror our environmentally conscious business practices. The space, which is eco-friendly by design, also supports the local economy by using furnishings provided by Knoxville-area businesses and artists. By using products from reclaimed and sustainable hardwoods, soy-based fabrics and organic materials, the space maintains its esthetic beauty without losing its environmental edge.


  • All of our walls are painted with low VOC paint.
  • Recycled metal, including scrap metal, is also used in much of our furniture.
  • The grass-like rug in our waiting area is actually made of recycled tires.
  • Housing live plants in a large sustainable planter keeps the office air fresh and removes toxins from it.
  • Learn more of the ways Pyxl is green.
