Washington, DC – Milken Institute School of Public Health has its seven academic departments and all programs housed under a single roof. The 115,000 square foot award-winning building provides a central location for faculty, students, alumni and staff to make face- to-face connections and convene with prominent leaders to exchange ideas.

The nine-story structure (seven stories above grade and two below) houses 15 classrooms, four exercise science labs (body composition, exercise physiology, athletic training, and motion analysis); a 75-person case study room; eight conference rooms; multiple informal meeting spaces; open office work areas; 24 faculty offices; three auditoria (one 200-person and two 100-person); and a 200-person convening center.

The building is designed for the occupants to practice what they teach. Central staircases leading to the top of the atrium dominate the space and encourage students and faculty to build physical activity into their day, rather than taking the elevators, which are hidden in corners of the building. Each faculty and staff member’s office is equipped with a standing desk to discourage long periods of sitting, and kitchens throughout the building offer faculty, staff, and students the opportunity to prepare their own healthy meals. The basement houses exercise science laboratories, a meditation room, and yoga and exercise studios.

Reston, VA – Oracle had developed a strategic plan to meet its long-term facility needs and selected a campus-like site that would accommodate future growth. The master plan for the 22-acre site that would grow to three additional buildings. Oracle would eventually develop 410,000 SF with the option build an additional 340,000 SF with an adjacent garage to support up to 3,500 employees.

The eight-story Phase I building design incorporates two distinct design styles.  This approach is in response to Oracle’s desire to present both a conservative image to its governmental clients and a more modern image, associated with Oracle’s leading edge core business, to the general public. The building features two floors devoted to classrooms and an auditorium; conference and meeting rooms, an exhibition center, cafeteria, and exercise facility. The Phase II building design mirrors Phase I, both conservative and modern.
