Project Overview:
WM being a leader in sustainability, our design team needed to weave the company’s mission into every solution. The dramatic living wall consists entirely of green and yellow flora, referencing WM’s brand colors, and a diagonal fretwork of metal and acrylic panels recalling the company’s logo. An 8,000-square-foot gallery leads visitors through a showcase framed by sustainably harvested wood echoing WM’s logo. Inside, a full-size WM truck cab invites employees and guests to drive through a virtual simulation of multiple truck routes, complete with actual controls and effects. High scores are displayed on a leaderboard behind the vehicle.
