XILINX Building

The Project

The design for this headquarters has created a conducive work environment by creatively bringing in the outdoors with lush landscaping and vertical greens. The use of air wells bring in more daylight, culminating into an open courtyard, serving as a key gathering point for social activities.

The Challenge

The challenge was to design an office that could integrate Xilinx’s uses and facilities while supporting their work activities. The timeless, functional and green design not only organised the uses efficiently but also brought out Xilinx’s focus on employees with spacious pantries, breakout areas and unoccupied work corridors.
