Daniel Pamperin, Principal, Gensler, discusses why the world's largest architectural firm chose the historic Mills Building for its San Francisco headquarters.
The reuse of 633 Folsom, a commercial building in San Francisco, is a story centered on the reduction of embodied and operational carbon and the reanimation of a vital urban corridor.
But climate concerns made options for the new office limited, said Randy Howder, Gensler’s managing director in San Francisco...When his team toured the second floor of the historic Mills Building at 220 Montgomery Street, which The Swig Company had overhauled to meet LEED Platinum and WELL Health-Safety standards, they knew they had found their new home, Howder said.
