Confidential Athletic Shoe and Clothing Manufacturing Client

First Cross Laminated Timber/Pre-Cast Hybrid Structure in the Nation and a Design Precedent for the Future

The first major build since the initial development of this confidential athletic shoe and clothing manufacturer Headquarters Campus consists of two new mass timber buildings and central sports plaza that serves as campus destinations for community events and furthering innovation. Both buildings cantilever over the soccer field and provide direct access to the field from the ground level, integrating diverse public spaces from cafe seating to places for outdoor training. Each building has a raw and authentic material pallet with exposed concrete, wood and metal panels that are woven across the facade to mimic how adidas uses materials in specific ways to create a dynamic appearance with their product designs. Overall, the masterplan established a new intersection and entry way to the campus that terminates at an arrival court and drop off, serving as a powerful space of arrival for visitors.
