ican Institute of Architects (AIA-NJ) has honored Princ- eton, NJ–based architectural firm ikon.5 Architects with a merit award in the interior architecture category in rec- ognition of its design of the Schindler Elevator Corpora- tion’s U.S. Headquarters in Morristown, New Jersey. The project was selected by an es- teemed jury of design experts who called it “incredibly cre- ative” and noted that its “use of lighting as part of architecture is sublime.” ikon.5 was enlisted by the Switzerland-based company to transform its office, built in the 1970’s, into a headquarters fa- cility expressive of its minimal and precise design aesthetic of its engineering heritage. The company also wanted the design to embody its mis- sion to safely and comfortably transport millions of people throughout the world with its highly sophisticated elevators and escalators. The 167,000 s/f building lo- cated inMorristown creates an environment of light and color that is both dynamic and mini- mal. Programspaces, including a conference room, training center, corporate dining room and lobby are designed as art installations that employees and visitors can walk through and experience as three-dimen- sional constructs. “We worked closely with Schindler Elevator Corpora- tion to ensure that our design would mesh perfectly with its corporate philosophy,” said Joseph Tattoni, FAIA , prin- cipal of ikon.5 architects. “We take pride in this award, which recognizes the meticulous care we took in this unique design.” The building also employs a series of design measures to reduce energy consumption including: photo-optic lighting controls for daylight dimming, LED lighting fixtures, recycla- ble carpet tiles, roof-mounted photovoltaic cells and low wa- ter consumption fixtures. “The renovations are sim- ply mesmerizing,” said Kim- berly Bunn, AIA , president of AIA-NJ. “The creative uses of lighting and color create an exceptionally natural feel in the building, something seldom seen in today’s office spaces. ikon.5 Architects is truly de- serving of this Merit Award.” n
