VISA CONFERENCE CENTER

Concept designs for a new conference center were conveyed with 3D visualizations.

Foyers on axis with main circulation paths are designed as focal points which heighten a sense of arrival and way-finding. 

New conference rooms create a contemporary workplace through warm materials, state of the art technology, and built-in functionality. 
 

CORPORATE TRAINING ROOM RENOVATION

Located off a skylit corridor, this project brings natural light into an existing land-locked conference room. 

Stringent code requirements associated with two-hour fire-rated construction led to the use of an innovative product classified as a fire-rated transparent wall.

The windows were designed as slender vertical openings, framed in warm maple, with integral motorized shades.
 

COURTYARD ENCLOSURE

A preliminary design to enclose mirrored landscaped courtyards was required to start a dialogue with the city planners regarding project feasibility. 

Stainless steel mesh detailed with open gaps creates a highly transparent solution, fostering a visual connection across courtyards and with passersby. 

Climbing plants on the lightweight steel structure enhance the garden atmosphere in the courtyard.
