At the project outset, Alta originally planned to duplicate the building footprint and program of its Wisconsin headquarters. But given the objective to create an inspiring workplace, the team quickly shifted gears to design an amenity-rich office building. The trick was to do so without exceeding the budget.
We designed the three-story, 98,000-square-foot building to include a blend of operational and gathering spaces. Amenities include open and private meeting areas, an executive board room, social gathering lounges, quiet “recharge” stations, a game room, training rooms, a cafeteria and an auditorium. A landscaped walking trail was designed on the property as well.
