Samsung
U-Project
Austin, TX
As Samsung Semiconductor's first major manufacturing facility outside of the Republic of Korea and first within the United States, the U-Project reinforces Samsung's position as a worldwide leader in the semiconductor industry. The project is located on a 180-acre site on Parmer Lane in Austin and includes a 125,000 square foot under-filter Class-1 process area, gas and chemical storage areas, a 300,000 SF office building, a central plant, scrubber yard, and an industrial waste treatment facility. The U-Project also includes Samsung's executive and engineering offices, conference rooms, a central kitchen and cafeteria, and reception areas.
The exterior skin is champagne-colored aluminum with blue-green butt-jointed glazing. The glazing is laser-set alignment to ensure a perfectly continuous reflection from panel-to-panel of the bright Texas sky. The fabrication facility, central plant, and industrial waste treatment facilities have a precast concrete exterior with a coated surface.
