A two-story office building of wood and stone nestled in the Buckhead neighborhood, the Beech Building is a study model in energy and research systems, including active solar collectors for hot water and space heating and a clerestory for ventilation. The site is accessed via a wooden bridge spanning a creek, and includes a hidden, five-acre nature preserve. Trees surround the building and a small lake. The first phase of the Beech Building was designed in 1979 and constructed shortly thereafter. Offices were added to the east end of the building from 1985 to 1986. Among other innovative projects, Thompson, Hancock, Witte & Associates designed the Headquarters for the Simmons Corporation.
