Regeneron Biopharmaceutical Campus Expansion
A corporate campus expansion featuring a prominent folded roof canopy and transparent double-height curtain wall, offering a strong architectural precedent for life-science or commercial campus entry portals.
- What we like about this project
- The roof fold dramatically pinches down at the corner to frame the double-height entrance.

- Geometry
- An angular, folded roof canopy spans over a multi-story transparent glass curtain wall, creating a dynamic double-height portal overlooking a paved public plaza.
- Facade system
- Stick-built structural glass curtain wall with integrated steel columns.
- Structural guess
- Steel frame with wide-span trusses supporting the cantilevered roof canopy.
- Spatial scale
- Large multi-story corporate campus building with human scale established by ground-level seating, doors, and pedestrian figures.
- Lighting
- Bright late-day sunlight casting sharp shadows across the plaza and illuminating the interior workspaces through clear glazing.
- Atmosphere
- Welcoming, vibrant, and professional daytime campus environment.
- Environmental context
- A campus quad or plaza setting with paved walkways, outdoor seating, mature landscaping, and connecting exterior walkways.
- Spatial experience
- The deep roof overhang provides a framed, sheltered threshold that bridges the expansive exterior plaza with the active, light-filled interior atrium.
- Composition rhythm
- Horizontal curtain wall mullions balanced by the rising diagonal line of the faceted roof canopy.
