DETAILS

The City of Chandler City Hall, Council Chambers and Parking Garage were envisioned as modern facilities that would bring enhanced government services for residents as well as create a synergistic focal point and gathering destination for the citizens without abandoning its rich history.

The $70 million dollar complex is one of Chandler’s first green buildings and received a LEED designation through energy efficient systems, on site electrical generation, innovative wastewater technologies, and recycling of construction waste products. Exterior shading devices were implemented to alleviate Arizona’s intense sun. Along the western side of the building is a piece of artwork that doubles as shade: individual, stainless steel, perforated panels move with the wind, giving a rippling effect, and are lit with LED lights. Whole building energy analysis predicts 38% lower energy use than a typical office building.
