Key Design Highlights Narrow floor plates and floorto-ceiling glass curtain walls allow daylight to penetrate office spaces throughout the LEED Platinum campus.. The workspace plan adapts for team and priority shuffling, with 40 percent assigned desk space. The rest is open as flexible desk space for any employee. Numerous seating hubs give employees many gathering and meeting options. Locally sourced materials are used throughout the campus.
A hub seating area (above) near the center of an office floor, provides spots for semiprivate relaxed conversations. In the open office plan, all desks have access to daylight (left). Informal seating areas with sofas (below) are outside of formal, enclosed conference rooms (below).
