Proposed as the East coast office, for the national Building Institute in Kensington, this project centers around ‘The Promenade’- a defining architectural and experiential feature. Designed to provide both tranquility and engagement, the building South-facing layout offers a peaceful retreat from the adjacent train station. The Promenade, a long open lobby and Exibit space fosters exploration and connection while seamlessly integrating indoor and outdoor experiences.

The first floor hosts Exibit and Event spaces, opening to a vibrant outdoor area, while the second floor houses the policy center in a quieter setting. Framing diverse outdoor experiences, the design features a rain garden, social courtyard and serene retreat. using CLT panels, Glulam structure and Mixed wood-Metal siding, the project balances warmth, durability and modernity.
