Located in a developing urban district, the Henkel North American Headquarters is an innovative collaborative center, integrated into its broader Sonoran desert context. The four-story structure is comprised of two levels of glass curtain wall shaded by a double ceramic frit, floating over a base clad in aluminum panels, textured plaster, and native Ashfork sandstone. The facility fosters interaction of all departments, providing corporate headquarters, labs and pilot plants, and a national conference center. LEED Certified, Henkel has taken environmental responsibility seriously, believing in its corporate citizenship to provide sustainable productive working environments.Completed as will bruder architects ltd. with CH2M Hill
