Gateway to discovery

The mission of Bayer's pharmaceuticals division is to discover products that will improve human health worldwide. One researcher, one lab, one department cannot accomplish this task alone.

This can only be achieved when many individuals, possessing a wide range of complementary skills work together. In close cooperation, communication, and collaboration. Leveraging their unique strengths as an integrated team.

With its new North American headquarters for the pharmaceutical division, Bayer moved closer to realizing this ambitious goal when it unified and consolidated its diverse departments on one campus. Through the new building's design, it also created a gateway to the complex and a distinct icon - recognizable to the community and representative to the employees - as a point of focused research and innovation.

Housing 750 employees across several departments, the building takes advantage of daylight and views of the beautiful stream, wetlands, and woods that surround the site. An exterior courtyard leads to patios, terraces, and walkways, connecting an inspiring, productive environment with those who work there.
