As the initial
project of a previously undeveloped area, the Shores Center reveals
a sensitivity to the architectural precedent it set.
Constructed
on landfill, the commercial office buildings were fabricated with
steel frames clad with fiberglass reinforced concrete panels to
make them both economical and lightweight. Sleek aluminum panels
and glass underscore the contemporary design.
Oriented like
a campus, the buildings were planned to cluster around a common
plaza to create a strong sense of place. Transparent lobbies finished
with oak paneling and tile floors extend through the buildings,
linking the main entrances visually and physically with the pedestrin
plaza.
