Indoor Air Quality
& Ventilation

Filtered Air

Exposure to a range of airborne pollutants, allergens, asthmatics, and volatile organic compounds may occur in the workplace. CO2 can build-up throughout the day, especially in high density work environments. Better air quality not only reduces absenteeism but in a recent study has shown an average of 101% higher cognitive test results from improved ventilation.

Lighting & Daylight
 

Sunlight

Lighting can impact comfort, mood, health, safety, and aesthetics of office space. Poor visibility, glare, flicker, and visual discomfort can create headaches, eyestrain, and affect task performance. Studies show workers with greater access to natural light are up to 18% more productive.

Outdoor Terraces
& Meeting Space

Outdoor Decks

17,000 SF of outdoor terraces are integrated into nine separate spaces throughout the building. These private outdoor spaces maximize access and usability creating the ideal indoor / outdoor work environment promoting health, wellness and productivity.
