Multi-story open atrium office interior
An extensive interior precedent for open-plan corporate workplaces structured around a dramatic multi-story timber-roofed atrium with interconnected circulation.
- What we like about this project
- The complex stair alignment creates multiple diagonal sightlines crossing the central volume simultaneously.

- Geometry
- Expansive central multi-story atrium volume surrounded by stacked mezzanine levels, connected by a network of interlocking wooden stairs and walkways.
- Structural guess
- Steel frame with exposed glue-laminated timber roof beams and composite floor slabs.
- Spatial scale
- Vast multi-story commercial scale; human figures appear small within the soaring central volume.
- Lighting
- Bright, even daylight enters through overhead skylights integrated within the timber roof grid, complemented by interior artificial lighting.
- Atmosphere
- Luminous, active, and airy with the warmth of natural wood overhead balancing the clean white and glass infrastructure.
- Environmental context
- Large indoor commercial workplace environment with deep floor plates organized around the central void.
- Spatial experience
- A grand, highly transparent atrium that connects multiple office floors visually and physically, encouraging circulation and open collaboration.
- Composition rhythm
- Repeating glulam beams establish a strong ceiling rhythm matched by the stacked horizontal balustrades of the mezzanine floors.
- Style reading
- Contemporary corporate architecture with a natural timber aesthetic
