A corporate R&D lobby precedent showcasing monumental concrete structural elements paired with a suspended metallic volume and expansive curtain wall glazing.
- What we like about this project
- A massive, cantilevered box hovers directly over the main thoroughfare, creating an enclosed spatial ceiling fitted with linear lighting.

- Geometry
- Monumental multi-height volume with a heavy suspended rectangular volume and massive structural grid columns supporting deep overhead beams.
- Facade system
- Full-height structural glass curtain wall with vertical metallic framing and sloped mullions.
- Structural guess
- Heavy reinforced concrete frame with large-span post-tensioned overhead beams and steel curtain wall framing.
- Spatial scale
- Grand monumental scale spanning multiple building levels with human figures appearing small relative to the massive columns and height.
- Lighting
- Diffused daylight enters through tall curtain walls and sloped glazing, supplemented by linear recessed fixtures under soffits and downlights on the upper ceiling.
- Atmosphere
- Cool, restrained, and commanding, defined by exposed concrete surfaces and expansive glass.
- Environmental context
- Indoor corporate R&D lobby with exterior trees and landscaping visible through the full-height glazing.
- Spatial experience
- A vast, monumental atrium scale gives way to more intimate under-croft seating zones beneath the suspended metallic volume.
- Composition rhythm
- Heavy vertical columns and diagonal facade mullions create a strong rhythmic grid contrasted by the horizontal band of the suspended white volume.
