Community-Based Design
To build a thriving and resilient community, workplaces must offer a range of spaces and experiences – places that easily adapt to change, and where people can come together to do their best work.

Urban planning principles inspire five mixed-use workplace districts that support multiple modes of work.
City Center
A social hub that is the heart of the community — a centralized connection point that draws people in where they can build bonds and trust.
Neighborhood
A home base for individuals and teams — a place where the heads down work gets done and teams stay connected.
Business District
A range of shared spaces where people come together to meet, share, brainstorm and collaborate — an environment that sparks creativity and innovation.
Urban Parks
Community destinations for people to find refuge and respite – a place to rejuvenate and care for their wellbeing.
UNIVERSITY DISTRICT
Communal area dedicated to individual and group learning that supports both structured and informal experiences — places to foster a culture of lifelong learning.
