In Bethesda, Maryland, Gensler designed Marriott's new global headquarters, which reflects the company's core values. With a 12-story flagship hotel, innovation labs, and hospitality-forward amenities, the new headquarters is a model for the future of work and a destination of its own. The design includes the hotel's spacious Seventh State Restaurant. On the menu, modern cuisine, and on the windows, our flagship RB 500+ automated roller shades manage glare while preserving views of the city's bustling core.

Last week, we visited the site of Villa Esperanza Services newest addition to its Pasadena campus. The new facility, which will feature three additional classrooms, an Occupational Therapy clinic, and a Physical Education and Therapeutic Center, is expected to open to students in 2025. The phased project — designed by Pasadena-based Practice (formerly GGA+) — included a new school that opened in 2018. This next phase addresses limited capacity, outdated therapy and recreation spaces, and a disjointed layout of repurposed buildings. With support from partners Somfy North America and Mermet USA, Hunter Douglas Architectural will design and install a series of bottom-up motorized trapezoidal systems to cover two large triangular clerestories and motorized and manual RB 500+ shades in offices and classrooms. Villa School serves students with intellectual and developmental differences and provides complete services, including speech, occupational therapy, and behavioral therapy on-site.

"As we design cities, we must ask: are we considering how the youngest members of our society, our kids, are engaging with that environment? Do our design strategies allow for the next generation to thrive, or are we inadvertently creating spaces that create unnecessary hurdles on their journey to adulthood?" By using inclusive design strategies in city and urban planning, we can build spaces that allow children to flourish, learn, play, and grow. Read more on Gensler's 8 Strategies for Impact, including indoor-outdoor connections and using blinds and shades to maintain a direct line of sight to the outdoors from play spaces—while supporting heat, light, and glare control. https://bit.ly/3WVm9lt
