and use less energy
In today’s operational climate reducing a data center’s environmental impact is essential; Fox Architects-designed Green Data Centers also reduce critical energy, operation and maintenance costs.
Incorporate strategic metrics
Beyond a building’s configuration and appearance, quantifiable results prove Fox Architects’ designs positively affect profitability. A recent Green Data Center design provided a 33 % reduction in energy consumption compared with conventionally designed data centers.
On another project, the Fox Architects plan provided a reduction of 75% in the quantity of piping necessary to connect the data center’s cooling systems.
Improve employee productivity
The design of most data centers rarely can offer employees access to daylight while achieving the required critical structural protection.
Fox Architects uses proven building materials to focus natural daylight into the building’s core. This reduces power consumption, while maintaining the structural integrity necessary to withstand F-3 level tornado wind stresses. By harnessing natural daylight, the environments improve employee efficiency/ productivity, reduce human error and create a more beneficial work environment.
