That's funny, you know.
But, you know, so I think it's not exactly the same, but there are definitely trends that will kind of shape what we're doing now that also shaped, you know, a few years back as well.
yeah absolutely i mean that the you know the data centers that were you know kind of nice looking were typically like in old buildings you know they can build uh so that it's kind of a built-in kind of uh historic but yeah when you're getting to kind of the big
it's hard to distinguish from one of these big distribution centers from a big data center.
So there's a reason behind it for some.
They don't want people to know that that's a data center, which then kind of falls back into that point about the secrecy.
But it's absolutely important.
And it's a couple of things.
It's the actual design of the facade and the
circulation of people and you know parking and all the kind of stuff um that that needs to work kind of irrespective of the data center um but one of the definitely one of the top complaints that i hear is this and we're not going to be able to disguise this but it's like this huge you know three-story building and a story in a data center is like 20 or 25 feet
um you know making it somewhat have some kind of uh you know had some in the context of like whatever the landscaper was so so yes it's super important and i'm not so sure it's going to really change people's opinion of it but so yeah we've seen some very pretty ones uh notwithstanding the older buildings you're talking about we i've seen some very pretty ones um
One of the advantages we have, like other firms like us, it's all integrated, like the architecture is integrated with the MEP, and that's really important in the kinds of buildings that we're designing because of the speed of having to get this done and that kind of thing.
So beyond the kind of aesthetic thing, there's more of a kind of a pragmatic application.
Yeah.
Yeah, so it can serve different purposes, but yeah, it's important, especially now.
Well, yeah, thanks, Robert.
I mean, this is, you know, stuff that I like to talk about and I think it's,
important at just you know from designer engineering just from a broader in the broader context of data centers what's happening and so so this is a this is a great kind of discussion on that particular topic thanks bill
