The new building and its iconic form, serve as a bold statement for the firm’s aviation brand.
Taken as whole, the dynamic complex showcases the forward thinking culture of the company—one that is dynamic, rising and on the move.
A sunken patio and green space offer a place for respite, nestled next to the building. The outer skin of the building form is sheathed in folded and triangulated sections of aluminum metal panels, allowing the building to twist and lean as momentum and movement build and pull around the perimeter.
An Iconic Form
The impetus behind the building form was the owner’s love of adventure, aviation and the spirit of collaboration. The end result is a sleek, sculptured celebration of 21st Century materiality. The buildings angled and sloped envelope changes as one travels around the building. As a progressive company, the interior of the facility capitalizes on the latest technologies and environmental planning concepts allowing for more efficient and functional environments. A large, sunlight filled atrium is the heart of the building, surrounded and overlooked by offices.
High Performance Design
Sustainable features are included inside and out, with a wide variety of regional and recycled materials incorporated into the details. A large skylight over the atrium uses new electro-chromic glass technology to control heat gain while bathing the entire center with abundant sunshine.
