Nortel Networks

World Headquarters, Toronto, Ontario This project deals with the conversion of Nortel Networksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Toronto, Ontario facility from a manufacturing plant to a 21st century world headquarters facility. Headquarters buildings offer companies a rare opportunity to make a public statement about their values and culture. Brampton Centre makes an eloquent statement of what is most important to Nortel Networks: its customers, its employees, and how they converge in the work environment. Brampton Centre is a renovation project that has transformed a 1963-vintage switching manufacturing complex into Nortel Networksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; new world headquarters. The project has transformed a singe-story high bay manufacturing space into a quality office environment for about 4,500 employees. A combination of architectural elements, productive officing, green space, and lifestlye amenities transformed the Brampton image from 20th century manufacturing to future-focused corporate headquarters.

World Headquarters, Toronto, Ontario

Brampton Centre was conceived of as a virtual city encompassing 970,000 square feet spread across a single floor plate. The project includes a tremendous variety of public spaces, private work areas, and team neighborhoods organized around city-planning concepts, complete with boulevards, plazas, side streets, and shortcuts. The city planning concepts allow the huge floor plate to be broken down into plazas, parks, monuments, and neighborhoods. Some neighborhoods are occupied by residents, some by restaurants and shops, others by museums and conference centers. A combination of open and closed offices, core support “boxes,” and interaction areas are clipped onto a central main street to create an organizing grid around which line-of-business, neighborhood, work group identity is possible. Micro climate design has been applied to the development of plazas and the experience of the visually enhanced neighborhood environments. Many design enhancements were included within the renovation based on the high value Nortel Networks places on its employees. Lifestyle amenities built within the building floor area were “extra” expenses in terms of added cost; however, they were also seen as essential to the overall success of the project and the productivity and creativity of the workforce. 3

This booklet documents the variety of visual approaches to the signage, wayfinding and graphics installed throughout this almost one million square foot corporate city. Whimsical signage on the food court storefronts, oversized characterized icons describing meeting rooms, company store, employee services, whimsical washrooms, and a colorful wayfinding system, combine to create an environment infused with fun, creativity, and motion. Moving through experiential layers (of architectural elements, visually rich graphics and the sequential unveiling of the workspace) visitors become conscious of a dynamic Nortel culture.

Dear Jane I guess it’s better to realize that we’d just drive each other crazy. And here I’m willing to admit you’re a better driver than I am...

Dear John And I still don’t believe “you bring a lot to the party” was quite the compliment you say it was intended to be…

Dear Jane It was just a little nickname my mother came up with. Believe me, we never referred to you that way in public, but if you think about it…

Dear John I could have sworn you said, “You wished I wasn’t so passion aggressive.” So excuse me for trying to comply with your suggestions...

Dear Jane You don’t refill the ice cubes, you never put gas in the car, you’re always overdrawn, so–duh–no kidding your life feels empty...

Dear John And exactly how often would you have had to practice before you figured out the difference between charisma and flirting?

Heat formed 1/8” thick non-glare acrylic “pages” top and bottom suggest flexible paper painted white with blue highlights for the men’s restroom and pink highlights for the women’s restroom. Flat acrylic “envelope” sheet with slight bend at envelope flap, 3/8” thick black acrylic spacers. Apply all graphics to backside of clear acrylic and spray apply enamel base color. Install with double-faced acrylic foam tape selected for reliability and longevity for installation surface. Join all layers for permanent construction.

The Info Kiosk map displays consist of one singular map that is customized to its particular location within the facility by the addition of you-are-here markers. These generic maps, complete with title, north arrow and legends, are fabricated in a subsurface display beneath transparent folia laminate. The you-are-here button is fabricated as a 1” diameter puck, red in color with white upper and lower case legend. Sandwiched between the top and bottom of the puck is a clear polished arrow pointer. When securely glued to the map surface, the scale map location can be accurately pinpointed with the clear pointer and not covered over with the puck.

business centre clock wall

World Headquarters, Toronto, Ontario

The Business Centre Clockwall displays five digital clocks with red LED displays. These Simplex clocks are slaves tied to a remote master clock. Each clock displays a time zone from a client site from around the globe. The clocks are flush mounted in a folia laminate faced wall mural. The wall mural consists of four pieces of digital output mounted subsurface to transparent laminate. The laminate is butt-edged at installation for a seamless appearance. The wall display is full height, floor-to-ceiling.

The clocks are labeled with alternating black and white bars of matte finish laminate forming a 1/4” raised continuous pattern across the elevation. The pattern mimics the art found as a border at the edges of most geographic maps. White bars display the representative city names in applied matte finish black vinyl. An additional applied laminate of matte red forms a pointing arrow with white vinyl legends displaying the upper and lower case legend "You Are Here”. This applique is raised 1/2” above wall surface, allowing it to overlap the city legends and point to the word Toronto.

graffiti wall at loading docks The 4,300 square foot interior wall elevation at the former loading dock of this facility (including dock doors) is to be painted in white primer and prepared for graffitti mural depicting an overall Nortel vision. Media to be spray applied color and characteristic of urban graffitti art.

Switching circuit pattern looms large as a background that trails from trucker’s exhaust stack.

Tractor / trailer, with Nortel globemark, is a historical reference that pays homage to the original manufacturing plant and shipping docks. Nortel trailer is packed with crates labeled with words like ‘values’ and ‘vision’ from company beliefs.

An air freight delivery of “heavy” new ideas packed in a wooden crate displaying the globemark.

Constellation-like parade of stars connected by dashed lines mimics charted metrics of milestones reached and upward progress recorded.

Clouds in a Nortel blue sky represent the need for “blue sky thinking” in the corporate environment.

A top-of-the-world view reinforces Nortel as a globe-able enterprise. Globe’s meridians double as tranmission networks connecting Point ‘A’ to Point ‘B’s across the world. Customers ‘around-the-world’ stand on the meridian network, each depicted in characteristic fashions from around the world. A bolt of wireless transmission arcs around the Nortel world.

keypad seating court Exterior seating mimics telephone keypad. The twelve oversize buttons are replicated as seating elements complete with radiused corners and concave contour of faces, in two locations, for a total of 24 seating elements. Each face has a carved or sandblasted set of numerals and/or letterforms corresponding to standard keypad. The depth of the engraved characters is approximately one and a half inches. The concrete forms indent at base to appear as if they float above ground. The first set of polished concrete forms are situated in a structured alignment as we have come to expect them, three rows by four rows. Spacing between elements has a conversational proximity.

Structured Installation

The second seating set is strewn random across a slightly larger site. Proximity is less conducive to paired conversation and more conducive to privacy and reflection. This site also has a light ‘fountain’: Fibre optic bundle begins blooming 8’ above finished grade from the top of a 8” diameter tubular column. The fibre bundle is lit at the base such that each fibre end glows in a point of light. Provide electrical connection to existing power at site.
