Challenge

  • Their creative and talented workforce grew from 750 to nearly 3000 and counting in less than three years. Blue Origin needed to build a high-tech, sustainable facility to inspire and support 1500 team members. It will serve as Blue Origin’s new headquarters and R&D space.

  • 225,000 square-foot Sprung structure was built and move-in ready for a world-leading private space exploration company – in only 11 months.

Results

  • Blue Origin’s building was completed on time and on budget. The space was designed to help employees feel and perform their best. Features include a garden, fitness facilities, an auditorium and diverse areas to relax, collaborate and socialize with team members from across the company.

This Sprung Structure Features:

  • The structure’s unique U-shape makes the most of the site’s geography. Its striking silhouette complements the local area.
  • Sprung structures provide a large, clear-span space. Open workspaces and areas for large gatherings, such as this auditorium, exist alongside smaller areas better suited to private meetings and focused work.
  • Blue Origin’s brand is front and center with a combination of custom color-matched Kynar® and Dupont™ Tedlar® architectural membranes. The design is inspired by human genome DNA sequence patterns.
  • Strategically integrated daylight panels and glazing walls provide an abundance of natural light that enhances the interior working environment.

Testimonial

“It’s a fresh and amazing design that brings many teammates together into one space. It feels like the outdoors are indoors, with so much space above and around me.”
Team Member, Blue Origin
