The Red Cross, having outgrown its space in an old mansion commissioned our firm to design a new headquarters building on a hillside on the Worcester – West Boylston line. The resulting curve of the building capitalizes on the panoramic view afforded by the site and provides the employees and volunteers with an exciting work environment.

Colorful sunscreens compliment the design and provide much needed sun protection on the south and west exposures. The slope of the site also afforded lower level expansion space, which as been fully leased to the Regional Office of the National Red Cross.
