Architectural, interior design, and structural engineering services for a series of groundbreaking facilities at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, including the Multi-Program Research Facility (MRF), the East Campus Complex, and the Frontier Supercomputer, the world’s first exascale system.
The MRF spans 218,000 SF and was designed to support a wide range of research functions with flexible, modular lab and office spaces. The 388,000 SF East Campus Complex houses one of the fastest supercomputers in the world, along with Class A offices and specialized engineering and research labs. The Frontier Supercomputer includes 77 liquid-cooled HPE Cray EX cabinets and nearly 10,000 AMD-powered compute nodes, delivering peak performance.
These facilities were designed with adaptability, security, and sustainability at their core and achieved LEED Gold certification, saving over five million gallons of water annually through innovative systems and landscaping.
Materials and finishes were selected to reflect the high-tech nature of the campus while supporting long-term durability and performance, through a future-forward look and design.
