Overview
This building is the headquarters for the largest manufacturer of concrete blocks in California. It is organised around a central open plan space with cellular ancilliary spaces to the perimeter. The open plan office space is free-spanned by timber trusses. The overarching roof shields the space from the intense sun of Southern California. The walls are made of concrete block of course to showcase the work of this family-run firm. The rest of the materials are also industrial in their aesthetic to match this location with its strip mining and factories.
