Glumac

For its Portland office renovation, engineering firm Glumac turned to Gensler for an environment that would encourage collaboration and reflect the company’s commitment to sustainability and creativity. Open and light-filled, the space centers on “neighborhood work areas,” where daylight and views are available to nearly all employees along with dedicated collaboration areas to facilitate increased teaming, learning and sharing. A lab provides space for experimentation with new technologies. To accommodate Glumac’s LEED® goals in a challenging structure, Gensler employed creative solutions focusing on internal mechanical and electrical systems, external glazing and windows that foster a wider communal sense.
