The initial footprint is laid out for the building.
Rhino is used to cut away existing transitions JDS wants to maintain at the base of the building.
The circulation diagram through the development.
A translucent exterior is chosen.
Vertical transportation is situated toward the ends of the facility.
Visual pathways are kept in line for those working above.
Visual pathways are also maintained perpendicularly to the main visual pathway. Given the site's location, near the middle of town, this respects the grid layout of the city.
Solar considerations are examined for the upper floors, which will channel an increased albedo content due to their positioning and terraced glazing.
Roof gardens are added to absorb some of the excess heat and energy.
The finished project at night.
