Barclays Global Investors, one of the world's largest asset managers, engaged STUDIOS architecture, with Erick Sueberkrop, principal in charge, to design a new headquarters befitting a financial institution with a combined portfolio exceeding $2 trillion.
The new 10-floor, nearly 300,000-sq.ft. building, part of the Foundry Square development that STUDIOS designed for Wilson/Equity Office, is demonstrably world-class headquarters in terms of design, technology and functionality. From vaulted ceilings in open office spaces to extensive daylighting, the building is anything but a typical office.
