The Mercedes-Benz Research & Development North America headquarters in Sunnyvale represents a sophisticated consolidation project that brought together operations from two locations into a single 71,715 square foot facility designed by IA Architects.
Built by Vance Brown Builders, the building features a unique combination of research and development spaces including a ground-floor café and auto workshop, with offices, conference rooms, huddle rooms, and design labs occupying the second and third floors.
The project's most distinctive architectural feature is its rooftop go-kart track, serving as a special amenity that reflects the automotive company's passion for performance and innovation. The building successfully balances German precision engineering aesthetics with the vibrant, innovative culture of Silicon Valley.
