Armanino, the San Ramon, CA firm best known around these parts for its ‘Perfect Taco’ video and trying to recruit a newly licensed CPA working at the firm across the street with a clever sign in the window, has signed a deal to rent a little more than 45,000 square feet of office space across two buildings in Century City in Los Angeles and Irvine in nearby Orange County.
Accounting and business consulting firm Armanino is reaching for the stars, with two full-floor leases at Irvine Company’s 2121 Avenue of the Stars and 400 Spectrum Center.
The firm inked deals for 23,450 square feet at the prominent 2121 Avenue of the Stars in Los Angeles’s Century City, and for 22,000 square feet at Orange County’s 400 Spectrum Center, according to the landlord.
That article contains one of the corniest, most self-fellating quotes we’ve ever read (that’s saying a lot). “We continue to see more customers like Armanino lease office space across multiple markets,” Roger DeWames, president of Irvine Company Office Properties, said in a statement. “This trend demonstrates the ongoing flight to quality and the ever-growing importance of choosing not only where your company works, but who your landlord is.” Rog, we’re gonna need you to rein it in a little, buddy.
The landlord views this prime location in Irvine as a plus when recruiting talent even.
As far as we can remember, Armanino started gunning hard for a big stake in the Los Angeles market in the early part of the last decade. Seems that’s working out well for them.
