Honda R & D  – Acura Design Studio

The first new building on the Honda campus in fifteen years, this design studio for Acura Automobiles is designed as an environmentally sustainable building with features such as high-performance glazing, an efficient displacement ventilation system, reclaimed water, daylight sensing dimmers and lighting controls, and numerous recycled materials. Honda’s commitment to incorporating the latest Green Building practices into this new building meant that environmental considerations had to be balanced with program and economic realities. The building received LEED Gold certification from the U.S. Green Building Council.
