The LEGO Group is bringing sustainable innovation to Virginia with plans for a new office building constructed using engineered mass timber. The project highlights a growing shift toward low-carbon construction methods, leveraging cross-laminated timber (CLT) to reduce environmental impact while maintaining structural performance.

Mass timber offers significant sustainability benefits, including reduced embodied carbon and faster construction timelines, making it an increasingly attractive option for forward-thinking developments. LEGO’s investment reflects a broader commitment to environmentally responsible building practices and reinforces Virginia’s emergence as a hub for innovative, sustainable construction.

Hourigan is proud to serve as a construction partner on this project, working alongside the team to deliver a high-performance facility that reflects LEGO’s commitment to sustainability and innovation.
