A global company headquartered in Schiedam, the Netherlands, Mammoet serves petrochemical, mining, power generation, natural resource development, civil and marine industries worldwide with tailor-made heavy lifting and transportation solutions for onshore or offshore. Structural elements are exposed and finished in Mammoet’s brilliant corporate red signature color to match the company’s logo; metal wall panels demonstrate bold, continuous, horizontal, ribbed profiles that are finished in a reflective metallic gray color; and, each window frame is painted white to enhance recognition and visibility. The design team chose a canted wall design to reflect Mammoet’s commitment to innovation. Like each of the structural elements in the envelope, Airolite’s load-bearing outrigger elements incorporated in the cantilevered Airolite sun controls are painted Mammoet red to emphasize their structural contribution and complement the color of the corporate logo. The metallic gray bar blades, configured in a progression from 10-1/2-inches to 4-5/8-inch wide members, and round fascia elements in the sun controls pose yet more linear horizontal sightlines and complement the color and profile of the metal panels.
City Bank Miami- Moderco
The National Bank of Miami wished to modernize and update their 2 levels of existing offices located on the 19th floor of The Miami Tower. Included was a complete redesign of their reception area. The owners and Architects wanted to create an immediate “Wow” effect, make the area inviting and warm by taking advantage of Miami’s abundant morning sun. The Moderco Vision single panel “see-through” glass panel system was selected as meeting all design and aesthetic requirements. Folding Walls of Miami had to overcome many non-standard issues such as the project being on the 19th floor of a downtown tower, the existing floor was not level requiring modifications, the installation of track within an existing ceiling and accounting for the installation of a 5/8” thick marble floor. But the desired effect was achieved as Moderco Vision truly delivered the goods as light pours into the room highlighting the new interior furnishings.

350 Mission Street
Sector: Offices
Location: San Francisco, California, USA
Architects: Skidmore Owings & Merrill / Gensler / Mark Cavagnero Associates
350 Mission Street represents the new headquarters of cloud computing giant Salesforce.
At 492,000-square-feet, 350 Mission Street is San Francisco’s first LEED Platinum high rise, and that focus on sustainability was the driving factor behind every decision made on this project. Chris Heimburger, Senior Vice President of Development for developer Kilroy, describes the goal of the project as the creation of a “high performance work environment” in every aspect from employee performance to optimised operating costs.
One of the key factors in achieving these goals was the utilisation of underfloor service distribution (UFAD). Using UFAD allowed for 100% filtered outside air to be brought into the building and distributed in an energy-efficient method. Running power and cable through the plenum allowed for the creation of a greater floor-to-ceiling height which increased overhead space for employees and allowed larger windows for improved daylighting.
Edmunds HQ
It takes a lot of people to make up Edmunds.com, the automotive networking and shopping giant. In 2016, Edmunds moved all those people into a new office in Santa Monica, CA, to give them a better, more collaborative, more enjoyable place to work. Architects M+M Creative Studio designed a vast flowing space with a polished industrial aesthetic heavy on car culture and a wealth of collaborative spaces. They integrated outdoor courtyards inside by making the office into a “convertible” with NanaWall opening glass walls. The result is an award-winning business space where people love to come to work.

The Met Atlanta
Atlanta’s The Met is an over 100 year old warehouse recently converted to multiuse spaces for entrepreneurs and artisans. The original warehouse, owned by a co-founder of the Coca-Cola Company, has had many uses in its history including distribution for the military during World Wars I & II. Today, the structures have been converted to include office space, art studios, and public use spaces to bring the community together.
As part of this redevelopment, the property underwent renovations to the roof – including replacing the original glass skylights. Over time, the skylights had degraded causing leaks and poor quality lighting inside. Kingspan Light + Air provided modern, polycarbonate skylights to provide high performance for the future.
The prismatic polycarbonate skylights allow ample light to enter the space, diffusing the spaces with natural light, without sacrificing thermal performance in the warm Atlanta sun.
The Big Build Ireland
Featured on RTE 1 on Sunday, the episode showcased an incredible building project from the presenter, Baz Ashmawy, and his team of volunteers for Tipperary woman, Sinead Barry and her family.
Sinead’s husband, Michael (34), tragically passed away after a very short battle with cancer whilst self-building their dream home. For five years, Michael had been self-building their house, and when he fell ill and sadly passed away in March 2019, the home was unfinished.
Baz and the team from DIY SOS The Big Build Ireland stepped up to help complete the new build last year, creating an incredible family home for Sinead and her three young children.
