An existing 9000 sf industrial warehouse was converted into a high-tech manufacturing facility and office for an LED manufacturer. The program includes offices, testing labs, showroom/meeting rooms, a manufacturing hall, and a distribution warehouse. The plan-section contrast allows maximum flexibility in programming and defines a volumetric narrative that is non-intrusive to the spatial needs of the client. Materially minimal, the rigid mass overhead engages the program playfully, in large scale in the manufacturing area and in detail by forming a volumetric entrance desk and a presentation wall in the conference room. The business identity is visually articulated through colored glazing and linear graphics that serve either as wayfinding or, at times, assume textural qualities.
