Working in a Treehouse

The site orientation creates contiguous clusters of buildings in an east/west orientation wrapping a water feature which serves as a central activity hub. The exterior prioritizes transparency to create a sense of “working in a treehouse.” Vertical facade elements abstract a tree’s trunks and branches.

The early decision to design a campus that would harmonize with the wooded site allowed for an authentic integration of architecture and landscape.

Design Details

Inside, the awe-inspiring entry lobby atriums act as the buildings’ primary organizational element and serves as the central and most significant collaboration space. “Treehouse” meeting space experiences scattered throughout the buildings provide unique collaboration opportunities as people rise through the buildings on monumental open staircases.

Employee health and wellness was at the forefront of the design, and active circulation is a key strategy. To encourage employees to move throughout the workday, vertical circulation is open, transparent, and beautiful. The design strategies that make the circulation elements enticing also make the workplace safer as more employees return to in-person offices.
