Presents the award-winning design for the Office Building of the Future; it integrates new thinking about the workplace, sustainability, and accommodates a limitless range of building types and scales. In 2012, an interdisciplinary team of globally recognised architectural, interiors, sustainability, engineering, and construction experts identified trends, advances and opportunities for potential incorporation into the design of an Office Building of the Future (OBF) for the year 2030 as part of a national competition sponsored by NAIOP, the Commercial Real Estate Development Association. The OBF team included Pickard Chilton, Design Architect; Magnusson Klemencic, Structural and Civil Engineer; Atelier Ten, Sustainable Design; Cosentini Associates, MEP Engineer; IA, Interior Architect; and Gilbane Building Company, Cost Estimator and Scheduler. The award-winning work culminates in a case study which integrates new thinking about the workplace, sustainability, building systems and modularity to accommodate a limitless range of building program types and scales.
