Dallas-based architecture and design firm Corgan, a nearly 90-year-old firm, has won the CoreNet Global 2026 Sustainable Leadership Award for its work on the Wells Fargo corporate campus in Irving, which opened last year.<\/p>\n

Corgan says the Wells Fargo campus<\/a> was designed to be the largest corporate campus in the United States that generates more renewable energy over a year than it consumes. The 22-acre Las Colinas development spans 850,000 square feet across two 10-story office buildings and can accommodate about 4,000 employees. It is certified LEED Platinum.<\/p>\n

Solar panels cover 360,000 square feet across the roofs of both office buildings and the parking structure. They are projected to generate about 5% more electricity each year than the campus uses, with the surplus returned to the grid. Water-cooled chillers run roughly 35% more efficiently than a baseline system. Low-flow fixtures and gray water reuse cut indoor water use by 74%, and the campus reduced potable water use for landscaping by 58% from its baseline, Corgan said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWells Fargo set an ambitious sustainability target, and together we showed what\u2019s possible when environmental performance is truly a design driver,\u201d said Varun Kohli, principal and director of sustainability at Corgan, in a statement<\/a>. \u201cBy combining net-positive energy strategies with human-centered design, Wells Fargo\u2019s campus demonstrates that sustainability is not a constraint on design excellence \u2014 it elevates it.\u201d<\/p>\n

CoreNet Global<\/a> is an international association for corporate real estate professionals with about 10,000 members in 50 countries. Corgan President Lindsay Wilson said in a statement that the award highlights both the client partnership behind the project and the work of Corgan\u2019s design teams.<\/p>\n

Corgan publishes its carbon-neutral goals <\/a>on its website. The firm says architecture, engineering and construction professionals \u201chave a specific responsibility in how our work impacts communities from chosen materials to water usage and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to the Sustainable Leadership Award, CoreNet Global is considering Corgan for the Global Innovator\u2019s Award<\/a>, the highest honor the organization offers. CoreNet Global will present both awards at its 2026 North America Summit in Chicago in October.<\/p>\n
