Structure Tone’s early and positive engagement with the design team—and the development of a common sense of purpose spanning the client direct contractors, the trade contractors and the business—helped Camenzind Evolution and ourselves successfully deliver some quite unusual and innovative design concepts for Google’s European headquarters within a very tight timeframe, made tighter by the worst winter in generations—all while maintaining a positive attitude and making it a project that was a pleasure to work on.
