2009 AIANC Design Awards - GETRAG - Merit

Architect: LS3P Associates, Ltd. - Performance. Precision. Passion. Design evokes minimalism of early 20th century modernist architecture coalesced with passive and active sustainable principles to achieve maximum building performance and individual workplace comfort. Regularly occupied interior spaces obtain natural daylight by means of the buildings long, thin floor plate; floor to ceiling glass on the building interior and exterior, and 11-0 tall ceilings. Essential elements of the design - cantilevered overhangs and balconies reduce thermal load. Motorized shade devices utilize real-time brightness sensors to instantaneously adjust the interior environment. Clear glass connects offices to the adjacent manufacturing floor to amalgamate different facets of the company.
