Pixar
Emeryville, California
The award winning computer animation headquarters was designed in a contemporary “industrial lost art aesthetic”.
A selective palette of fully exposed lighting below spruce decking adds to the inherently honest expression of materials that was the design mantra.
The heart of the building is the vibrantly glowing Atrium that symbolizes the creative hearth of Pixar.
