Designed to modernise and reinvigorate a 50-year-old commercial office building in Walnut Creek, California, the Corten Ribbon envisaged by Form4 Architecture provides an iconic entrance as a structural installation made from weathering steel. The San Francisco-based studio was also responsible for the architectural renovation and interiors of a 24,000 sq ft two-storey community building that is part of the commercial office complex. Within this community building, the architects designed a cafe, five new conference rooms, a reception lounge/collaboration area, bike lockers, public restroom and a shower+locker facility on the ground floor.
