Responsible design was a key factor for Vans during the process of building out their current home base. This project included shell and core upgrades and tenant improvements in an existing 179,000 SF commercial office building. The building is far more efficient than a typical Title 24 building- achieving 95% energy savings over the 2005 California Energy Code used as the LEED standard at that time. The project earned a LEED Platinum certification scoring 118 points, while the range for a Platinum Score is 80-110. In addition to mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering services, tk1sc also provided low voltage systems design, commissioning, and LEED administration services for this project.
San Diego is one of the US’ top life science clusters, with strong demand for office and lab space. To serve this dynamic sector, asset management company The RMR Group wanted to completely redevelop an existing 186,000 square foot science campus to offer modern, Class A work and collaboration spaces that could accommodate a range of tenants. The transformation has been very successful: at completion, it is expected to be 85% leased to pioneers in digital surgery, regenerative medicine, and biotechnology.
