Campus Master Plan This campus, located in Hillsboro, Oregon, is a multiuse high tech research and development facility for a world-class microelectronics industry client. Program elements included research labs, administration buildings, manufacturing facilities, site utility infrastructure, and site amenities, culminating in a 16-year, six-phase build out at completion. The site is located on the cusp of an extensive wetland. A collaborative design effort between the client, environmental agencies, design team, and the wetland design/mitigation team developed a new approach to site wide environmental design and restoration.

For the first time, code-required stormwater retention ponds were coupled together with existing wetlands and a creek restoration project, creating a landmark solution. By combining these elements, the client increased the buildable site area, reduced landscape irrigation, and created a green “front door� to the campus, while increasing the available land dedicated to plants and animals and restoring a natural balance to the site.

Other site strategies included layering the various buildings by use. Administration buildings ring the campus, providing a public face and a comfortable work environment between the wetlands and the fabrication facilities. Manufacturing buildings are located in a ring behind the administration buildings, with links connecting the different phases. Utility services and hazardous material are located in the main core for security and proximity to service needs.
