Transparency and simplicity are the key elements in this office complex, situated near the Miami River. The concept is to create an upscale office environment with large floor plates that allow user flexibility and evoke the feeling of open space. The design draws inspiration from its adjacent context - citing both the inherent industrial and nautical overtones of the location and the heavy civil roots of the end-user. The resulting 4-story structure resembles a stack of shipping containers – a common spectacle visible from the project site – strategically arranged to create large unique volumes and sheltered spaces that accommodate various uses. The elegant, yet simple exterior is the perfect amalgamation of raw steel accents, pristine glass windows and the exposed concrete that envelops each rectangular form. Inside, the program includes office and studio space, conference rooms, lounges, balconies and common areas that maximize both interior and exterior views.
