Murphy Oil Headquarters
Transparency defines the workplace. Structural glass walls and skylight systems create a light-filled lobby at the Murphy Oil Headquarters.
Designed by Polk Stanley Wilcox, the headquarters building uses expansive structural glass walls to establish a transparent and welcoming entry sequence. The lobby façade frames views through the building while maximizing daylight across the interior workspace.
The façade incorporates Sentech’s VetraFin structural glass system, featuring oversized insulated low-e glass units supported by single-span structural glass fins rising nearly 30 feet in height.
The system delivers high performance while maintaining the clarity and openness expected from an all-glass architectural envelope.
