Occupying the top floor of a 1910 New York City landmarked building, this new 10,000 square foot office interior for the global urban planning and landscape architecture firm EDAW/AECOM is the first of a comprehensive design upgrade of its North American offices. Intended to foster creativity among its staff and inspire its clients, the open office space has a new skylight opening located above a central glass-paneled meeting room. Tracks suspended from the ceiling-mounted steel trusses allow individual steel-framed glass panels of the meeting room to slide across the office creating a number of different space configurations for conferences, displays, and office-wide presentations. This flexible design element meets the ever-changing needs of the office while providing a vibrant and dynamic focal point. The project’s construction methods, mechanical system, lighting design and material selection achieve a rating of LEED Gold reflecting the commitment of the EDAW/AECOM organization towards sustainable and environmentally responsive design.
