The building consolidates over 650-people from four facilities onto one 20-acre suburban campus, bringing CGI’s multi-disciplinary team together for the first time into a dynamic new space. The building form creates a striking presence and is a direct response to the environment, angulating to the path of the sun while also preserving existing natural elements on the site. The self-shading form of the building works with the integral passive solar shading system and high performance glass to optimize thermal performance and balance daylighting within the space. 

The flexible facility uses interchangeable workplace modules provide the agility to reconfigure workspaces as needed to foster collaboration from concept design through product prototyping. A centralized communal zone contains formal and informal meeting spaces and vertical circulation elements to promote physical connectivity. While a mixture of internal amenities such as a full service café and fitness center along with external amenities such as a shaded outdoor seating area and walking path are designed to encourage meaningful collaboration and create moments of respite that reinforce the family centric culture.
