Project Description

Set to become the hub for the client’s design and software research programs, these new R&D centers expand the company’s foundation for the development of future growth engines. Due to its strategic location in a dense urban capital city, the new center will be able to recruit and retain top talent in the fields of research and development. The company aims to employ 10,000 researchers in the areas of design and software at this complex.

The $822 million R&D center, a complex composed of six 10-story buildings with a total floor area of 330,000 m2 (3.5 million square feet), is equipped solely with Therma-Fuser™ VAV diffusers (4,573 units). Of key importance to the client was seamless integration of the VAV diffusers into the architecture; this was accomplished with T-Series Square and Continuous Look Linear diffusers.
