Office Building of the Future

Jon Pickard FAIA presented the winning design of The Office Building of the Future at the NAIOP Annual Conference in Washington, D.C. Limitless in its potential configurations and bound only by imagination, the competition proposal envisioned by Pickard Chilton embodies three distinct principles, centered around human qualities, business objectives and sustainability.

Owners of this future office structure will enjoy substantial economic benefits and tenant satisfaction will increase as a result of working in a more social, mobile and collaborative fashion referred to as distributed work. Sustainability will be a critical component of the Office Building of the Future, which will incorporate an advanced monitoring system to track, measure and display data about building performance. This real-time feedback will allow potential tenants to make informed decisions about their workplace and enable a high-performance building to stand out in a highly competitive real estate market.
