The adaptive reuse of Building 18 in Philadelphia’s historic Navy Yard is the latest addition to the award-winning, multi-phased corporate campus MSR has designed for Urban Outfitters. Built in 1904, it is the largest single-story building for an individual brand on the campus. The new office space features, layout, and aesthetic provide an atmosphere where creativity can flourish.

Work areas for individual departments feature integrated storage units, posting areas, and slat walls surrounding the group tables to improve team performance. Contiguous skylights throughout the building draw an abundance of daylight into the workspaces. The design also includes a large courtyard with gardens, pathways, and an outdoor patio. Located between the original Building 18 and the 1942 annex addition, the courtyard serves as a meeting area and source of inspiration for employees.
