A new series of renderings from Neumann Monson Architects previews the exterior and interior features of the Stanley Center's new home.
As we approach our Groundhealing Ceremony this month, new drawings from Neumann Monson Architects show exterior elements of Stanley Center’s sustainable home that will include solar panels, rainwater capture systems, insulating exterior cladding, public art, and landscaping inspired by the Mississippi River.
The interior spaces of Stanley Center’s new home will infuse biophilic elements into a workspace designed for collaboration and wellbeing.
Written by Justin R. Wolf and produced by Ecotone Publishing, the book explores our collaborative approach to designing and constructing a biophilic and regenerative building aspiring to meet the most robust building standard in the world, known as the Living Building Challenge.
