Operations Center of the Future

The challenge unfolded in an existing 40 x 40 office space in Phoenix, Arizona. Honeywell wanted a next-generation virtual control room that could accommodate visitors. BAW set about creating a futuristic stage set that would demonstrate Honeywell’s latest advances in control room technology. The result was a space-age room with therapeutic lighting to reduce eye strain, and unsurpassed attention to acoustics that featured sound-absorbing materials throughout the space. Custom-designed console furniture incorporated ergonomic principles that curved, reflecting the arc of a human’s reach.

The entire unit had to be portable, upgradable and scalable. Indeed, ISO requirements demand a 25% growth capacity, to accommodate future technology. BAW expertly wove into the design scalability factors that take into account technology that no one can yet imagine. The multi-purpose space is also modular, and can be relocated if needed, negating return-on-investment concerns.
