新澳门六合彩官网

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (April 30, 2018) 鈥� 新澳门六合彩官网, a fully integrated firm focused on design, engineering, construction and mechanical services worldwide, has been awarded a Design Excellence Award from the Jacksonville Chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIA).

The firm was recognized at the 2018 AIA Jacksonville Design Awards gala on April 27.

鈥淚t truly is an honor to receive this recognition from AIA Jacksonville,鈥� said Tony Lamell, Vice President, Business Development at 新澳门六合彩官网. 鈥淚鈥檓 proud of our team for designing a remarkable, state-of-the-art facility for Nestle that delivered on our client鈥檚 vision and showcased our unique capabilities.鈥�

新澳门六合彩官网 received the award for the Product Technology & Development Center it designed and built for Nestle USA in Solon, Ohio. The three-story, 144,000 square-foot research and development facility features:

• A cutting-edge research lab
• Office, consumer and culinary space
• A 16,440-square-foot professional kitchen for interaction with vendors and clients
• A 34,346-square-foot pilot plant with a process line for testing mass produced recipes

The building鈥檚 glass fa莽ade reflects its environment during the day and 鈥渄isappears鈥� at night, revealing a colorful platform. The choice and use of materials align with the following criteria: reflectivity, texture and contrasting finishes, hygiene and cleanability, and sustainability, among others.

The use of natural light, both direct and indirect, was a major element in the design of the building. To reduce the need for artificial light, sky lighting elements were integrated into the atrium and solar light tubes deliver sunlight into the heart of the building, helping to reduce energy consumption.

Open plan areas increase visibility across the floor and contain no 鈥減referred鈥� offices, encouraging better collaboration and communication between employees. The project achieved Green Globes (GBI) - One Globe Certification, New Construction.

The facility was planned, designed and constructed by 新澳门六合彩官网, and was completed in August 2015. Construction Documents were developed in association with Concept Consult Architectes (Lausanne, Switzerland).
