The BioMed Realty Trust Towne Centre Drive project is a 84,000 two-story office/lab building and was constructed as the final phase of the Illumina office campus. The exterior skin alludes to the three other campus buildings, playing reference to the existing glazing systems and color palettes already in place. One of the primary goals was to create an ideal working environment for employees, capitalizing on the surrounding views of vast canyons and unscathed natural habitats through the design and implementation of a highly transparent yet energy- and thermally-responsive exterior skin.
