We are building a series of interior atriums and gardens that are not a conservatory or a place you simply visit, but a place where you can really work“- added the architect. “The design is meant to symbolize both nature and science, but with Helix, we’re really taking it to the extreme. “We do a lot on this site to connect people with nature”Said chief architect and director of NBBJ Dale Alberda, the company responsible for PenPlace. The property will include gardens and relaxation areas. The new Amazon headquarters will be ecological-oriented and will provide employees with as much contact with Mother Nature as possible. The tower will have 22 floors and nearly 112,000 square meters of usable space. The facility will cost a staggering $ 2.5 billion, half the size of the world’s tallest skyscraper, the Burj Khalifa. The building has not been named yet, but it will be a real architectural masterpiece.Īccording to the project, the object is to symbolize the tower, the DNA thread and the tree of life. It will be the second Amazon headquarters in the United States. The new headquarters will be built in Arlington, Virginia, across the Potomac River from Washington, the capital of the US.

The new building looks like the biblical Tower of Babel.
