Project Overview:
Sunnyvale City Hall is the first city hall in the country designed to be Net Zero Energy and LEED Platinum certified. It is the heart of the new Civic Center Campus producing enough clean energy to power itself and serve as a community hub and service center for residents.

The lobby's central staircase is not just a physical structure but a catalyst for movement and interaction, promoting health and exploration encouraging city staff and the public to move fluidly throughout the building.
