Amanda Manufacturing Headquarters

Amanda Manufacturing Headquarters

Logan, Ohio

The new 2-story headquarters for Amanda Manufacturing is located adjacent to the company’s existing 130,000sf manufacturing facility. The design alters the relationship between light and work space.

As one approaches, the predominant view on the complex is the curtain wall modified with a brise-soleil system which limits direct light, but maximizes views towards the town of Logan. In the upper level, the shafts of the penetrating solatube skylights work in tandem with structural columns to reinforce the loose clustering of desks, while still allowing for clear views to the exterior.

On the lower level, the solatubes provide a surprising source of sunlight. Throughout each day and each season, the sections of the building register the passing of time through the subtle changes in light.
