架构师提供的文本描述。随着Franke不断寻求和提供技术和服务方面的创新，设计团队致力于以创新的设计解决方案来反映他们的愿景、产品线和独特的欧洲血统。这是通过使用简单的形式和线条在整个建筑，一个严格的模块和节奏，并使用耐用的材料，以反映弗兰克的奉献精神，不妥协的质量。

Text description provided by the architects. As Franke continually seeks and delivers innovations in both technology and services, it was the design team’s commitment to reflect their vision, product line and unique European lineage with innovative design solutions. This was achieved through the use of simple forms and lines throughout the building, a strict module and rhythm, and the use of durable materials to reflect Franke’s dedication to an uncompromising quality.

在建筑物的外部，采用了绝缘铝板系统，坚持这一严格的模块和节奏。这一点不仅在建筑物的幕墙玻璃系统中得到了进一步的反映，而且还体现在用作建筑标点符号和暖化元素的木材体积上。办公大楼使用了一大片瓦楞纸金属，以创建一个组织脊柱，并作为一个机械屏幕。

On the exterior of the building, an insulated aluminum panel system was employed, adhering to this strict module and rhythm. This is further reflected, not only in the building’s curtain wall glazing system, but also the wood volumes which are used as building punctuation and warming elements. A large expanse of corrugated metal was utilized at the office building to create an organizational spine and serve as a mechanical screen.

这个组织元素表达了与制造时间有关的空间层次，从建筑前面的产品开发到建筑中点的产品测试，到配送中心的配送结束。

This organizing element expresses a hierarchy of spaces as they relate to the time line of manufacture, from Product Development at the front of the building, through Product Testing at the building’s midpoint and terminating with distribution at the Distribution Center.

倾斜混凝土被用于技术中心的成本节约策略，并作为联系办公室和分配质量的一种手段，因为整个配送中心都是倾斜混凝土。该设计团队与Franke合作，将几个业主提供的产品和材料包括在内，例如在他们的技术中心提供用于墙保护的不锈钢面板，以及在其员工咖啡馆中的咖啡机、浓缩咖啡壶和厨房设备。

Tilt-up concrete was used in the Tech Center for cost savings strategies and as a means to relate the Office and Distribution masses since the entire Distribution Centeris tilt-up concrete. The design team worked together with Franke to include several owner provided products and materials, such as stainless steel panels for wall protection in their Tech Center and coffee makers, espresso makers and kitchen equipment in their employee café.
