Winner of ENR Southwest Best Office/Retail/Mixed-Use Project 2021
SUNSTATE TRAINING CENTER, PHOENIX, ARIZONA
NEW 28,000SF 2-STOREY BUILD TO SUIT OFFICES AND TRAINING FACILITIES
This project represented our first ground-up building in the USA where we were both the Architects and Interior Designers.
Sunstate has an illustrious history and we were privileged to be given the opportunity to add to their campus by designing their new training facility in Central Phoenix.
Leaning on the design of their existing HQ building, we reinterpreted the architecture to ensure that the buildings spoke a similar language while promoting their expansion with modern forms and materials.
The central steel and mesh feature highlights the entrance in addition to screening the rooftop equipment. Playing off Sunstates business of rental equipment we designed the steel bracing to represent a scissor lift.
The interiors speak to the function of the facility by having a more open and industrial feel. Glass breakout spaces and meeting rooms represent modern office design while the classroom settings are comfortable, flexible and packed with technology
