walker engineering headquarters

The new Walker Engineering Headquarters completes a functional and experiential circuit by consolidating once disparate verticals onto the headquarters campus.  A new “connective system” is layered into the existing building, defining a tour path for clients and vendors through office departments and across to the new pre-fabrication facility.

 

A woven mesh ceiling system acts as a strong visual marker of the tour path, maintaining visibility to other building systems such as lighting and data trays, and overlapping into staff-centered gathering spaces, marking points of interface between different departments.

 

Topped by a translucent wall system, the typically utilitarian pre-fabrication warehouse is elevated to a showcase element with ample natural light on the interior and at night, acting as a luminous expression of Walker Engineering’s work.
