SGI/GOOGLE HEADQUARTERS

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

In 1993, Silicon Graphics undertook to build a 500,000 square foot corporate campus on 26-acre brownfield site in Mountain View, CA. SGI's goal was to create a true "campus", where buildings would form a community and somehow feel like a small, more intimate project. The masterplanning process allowed the team to achieve a solution that met the conflicting needs of the Client, the City and the site. Today it is the known as the "Googleplex" - the international corporate headquarters of Google Inc.
