Nokia North America Headquarters – Dallas

CallisonRTKL designed Nokia's North American headquarters project, which consolidates Nokia's Las Colinas and Plano locations into a single site at Cypress Waters, a live-work-play development. The project addresses two of the latest challenges facing corporate end-users: the combined effect of globalization and technological innovation on how employees work. The workplace design focuses on supporting a cultural shift from a process-oriented, hierarchical workplace focused on individual work to an interactive team-collaboration approach focused on innovation, technology, and problem-solving. By creating a centralized campus, Nokia's headquarters provides flexible spaces that encourage teamwork while unifying two corporate cultures, and offers a variety of spaces that respect employees and the knowledge and value they bring to the company. Like many companies, Nokia also offers flexible work locations. The company has two large office buildings where professionals can work wherever they are needed, including from home. This provides flexibility while the campus itself offers a range of settings for collaboration, focused work, and social interaction. The design by CRTKL creates a workplace that reflects Nokia's identity as a technology leader while supporting the evolving needs of its workforce.
