The global core is a monolithic volume dropped in the middle of a forest. Research Triangle Park consists of some 7,000 acres of industrial space which serve 140 organizations and corporations. As a key global technopole, RTP provides the telecommunications backbone that can service a corporation intending to become the world's leading content provider. The area is populated with a highly skilled labor pool at relatively low cost.
Muzak's global headquarters is contextual, blending into the RTP landscape by adopting the overall silhouette of other large corporate and institutional warehouse structures in the area. The building maintains an interior focus and defines a corporate culture. The majority of the company can be consolidated and located inside of this single building. Parking for cars and space for delivery trucks is contained inside the building at ground level. Employees enter the second floor, the main office level of the building, through central escalators and two circulation cores located in the full height atria.
