NCR Midtown

In one of the largest intown moves in Atlanta's history, NCR (originally National Cash Register) set out to create a headquarters that would better enable it to realize its vision and celebrate its commitment to innovation. Shifting the company's brand identity from a hardware company to a software company wasn't without its challenges. NCR needed a workplace interior that would propel their directional shift and support their new brand identity. The relocation of their headquarters required a thoughtful, story-rich design that would inspire employees and engage the community.

The company's new LEED Platinum home features open work areas with free address, various gathering spaces and plenty of amenity spaces for people to forge bonds away from traditional workplace settings and incorporate elements of wellness. State-of-the-art amenities reinforce NCR's commitment to giving back to employees while also attracting top tech talent from neighboring Georgia Tech and beyond. In the ground floor lobby, the TechTalk grand stand wraps over the coffee shop connecting employees with tech students, and the public, becoming an anchor for the community. A two-story fitness center and gourmet marketplace open to a landscaped rooftop terrace and acts as a connecting floor between the two work towers.

This project was an opportunity to create a campus that was innovative, vibrant, and agile to support the cultural shift taking place within the organization. The design team's vision to create this inspired "village" required workplace, lab place, and amenity spaces to be woven together like strands of a cable. The workplace and lab place experience aimed to integrate their customers, support focus work and drive collaboration. The amenities were seen as a vehicle to attract talent, support health and wellness and bring people together in serendipitous moments.

Since the project's completion, the company has split into two entities: NCR Voyix and NCR Atleos.
