The new environment of this top-50 construction organization enabled their culture to evolve from a series of isolated silos within their previous dark and traditional-styled offices into an integrated, collaborative organizational model that incorporates LEAN operational efficiencies. As a result, the new space provides more flexibility for a higher population with more amenities to increase operational efficiency and effectively provide better service to their customers. The LEED Silver office utilizes renewable materials, including aluminum plate flooring at each lobby which folds into the dark cherry wood reception desk, circular areas of rubber flooring (recycled tires) at each cafe and coffee station, renewable carpet tiles, low VOC paints, enhanced air quality mechanical systems, and energy efficient lighting and control systems.
