Beinfield Designs KAYAK.com's Incredible Stamford Headquarters

Beinfield Architecture PC recently had the privilege of working with KAYAK.com, the leading travel search engine on the Internet, on their new Stamford, Connecticut headquarters. The concept and the final product are fantastic!



Mark P. Goodwin, AIA led the design team in the conversion of the abandoned south side Police Station.  Located on Market Street, in the heart of the neighborhood that's quickly becoming the Brooklyn of Fairfield County, this project was destined to be cool.


The glass enclosed conference room sits beneath the jet fuselage constructed inside of the space. Incredible, right?


The open catwalk above connects the upper level work areas, and the design's use of glass creates a completely transparent office environment while maintaining distinct uses of space.


The steel framework, exposed brick, and jet fuselage are referential of the building's origins and the fantastic innovations of the travel and transportation industries.


It's clear KAYAK is continuing on it's own path of innovation with this space. What an amazing opportunity to work there each day! The Beinfield Team was honored to design this great new addition to the Stamford South End community.
