What is a corporate tower that is simultaneously a technology research center, a design hub, a railway station, and a transportation node? What do speed, communication, and innovation have to do with the city of Charlotte, NC?
The idea of motion and speed is emphasized by the building site conditions. With direct access to a Light Rail stop and the Charlotte Transit Center, the tower is located within a prominent node for movement throughout the city. The concept of constant transition is translated to the building form by connecting the floor plates and inserting interior/exterior ramps; thus forming a single trajectory.
