Manekin Headquarterscolumbia, Md

摘要

With an aim toward developing a green building and providing a healthy work environment for employees, Manekin Construction LLC of Columbia, MD, constructed its 2-story, 54,000-square-foot headquarters to meet LEED Silver certification requirements. All of the company's corporate functions, and 100 of the firm's 160 employees, are housed in 34,000 square feet, with the remaining space available for lease. Employees will benefit from the facility's seven conference rooms, breakroom and lunch area, and fitness room. The building's facade -composed of brick, aluminum composite, and cur-tainwall - could've looked plain and predictable; however, by cantilevering the curtainwall and curving the aluminum composite panels, the exterior has unique angles and curves, and a futuristic design.
