Elkus Manfredi Architects transformed two warehouses into one modern, connected R&D environment that elevates the brand of autonomous vehicle maker Nuro and distinguishes it among its peers. Inspired by Nuro’s vehicles, the workplace layout utilizes classic urban design principles. The striped ring “road” connects all spaces and separates the inner loop—the dense “urban center” with support spaces, meeting rooms, labs, and the building core—from the outer loop, which is open and expansive, with airy workstations areas and roadside kitchens for casual socializing, recharging, and connecting.
