 The exterior design takes a mayor role as
becoming the “transition” that “glues”
one building to the other. The project
involves the renovation of an old
pharmaceutical laboratory complex to turn
it into an office “campus” park.
One of the biggest concerns for the client
was that the landscape really integrated
the workspace with the exterior giving the
option to also use it as a possible working
space for informal meetings or
presentations. Four main buildings with
different scale and geometry form the
complex.
The main concept for the landscape and
hardscape design was to literally depict the
integration between inside and out, making
the illusion that the plants and trees
already existed and that the project was
built around it.
The project is shaped by architectural
elements such as:
‐ “folded” wooden decks
‐ Communication ramps
‐ Green areas at different levels
