Text description provided by the architects. SEI Investments, Inc., a banking and financial software services firm with operations worldwide, commissioned Meyer, Scherer & Rockcastle to develop and implement a multi-phase master plan for their 90-acre site located outside Philadelphia. Master planned for 650,000 square feet, SEI Investment’s corporate campus is designed to maximize employee environmental benefits, increase productivity, and eliminate about $1 million per year in operational costs. For five consecutive years, SEI has been named one of Fortune Magazine’s "100 Best Companies to Work For in America." In addition to general statistics regarding employees, jobs, and management, the company was recognized for its family center, egalitarian culture, and beautiful grounds.

SEI不希望建立狭窄或限制的项目指导方针。这种限制的缺乏直接反映了公司对不断改造和更新自身的强烈兴趣。通过消除传统的程序过程(个人工作场所和组的详细编程)，设计可以是开放的，并保持灵活和灵活，以满足SEI及其客户不断变化的需求。

SEI did not wish to establish narrow or restricting program guidelines on the project. This lack of restriction corresponds directly to the company’s intense interest in continual reinvention and renewal of itself. By eliminating the traditional program procedure (detailed programming of individual work place and groups), the design could be open-ended and remain nimble and flexible to the continually evolving needs of SEI and its clients.

SEI选择MS的理由之一

One of the stated reasons that SEI selected MS&R was an ability to combine low cost with design innovation. Specifically, we believed that extra-ordinary performance and design could be leveraged from ordinary materials. The design is about both performance and aesthetics—leveraging intelligence rather than over spending. The project uses all non-toxic and recycled materials. For example, the floor covering is recycled rubber. Because of a lease expiration, the entire process (design to move-in) was completed in 31 months by using fast-track bidding and construction procedures. The final construction cost was $88.80 per gross square foot. We have continued the working partnership with SEI, most recently completing Phase VI of the corporate campus.

这项设计消除了SEI为将其员工转移到新的工作组所花费的100万美元的年度运营成本。这一节省是通过定制设计一个下拉式电源/数据/电信系统来实现的。所有的家具都在轮子上，门的大小可以让团队随意移动。没有一个人坐在离窗户30英尺以外的地方，而且瑞典设计的“H”窗大部分都是可操作的。整个建筑采用再生轮胎作为地板，便于清洁和音质。

The design eliminates $1 million in annual operational costs that SEI was spending on moving its people into new work groups. This savings was accomplished by custom designing a drop-down power/data/telecommunication system. All furniture is on wheels, and doorways are scaled to allow teams to move at will. No individual sits further than 30 feet from a window, and most of the Swedish-designed "H" windows are operable. The entire building incorporates recycled tires for its flooring for easy cleaning and acoustical quality.
