As the world's largest architecture firm, Gensler has been the guiding hand behind tens of thousands of masterplans and buildings — including New York City's JFK Airport and Facebook's London headquarters — since its founding in the 1960s.
Around the world, the company has more than 2,500 architects working on design projects, including a $600 million redevelopment of Chicago's oldest post office.
In an interview with Business Insider, Gensler co-CEO Diane Hoskins shared three of her favorite pieces of architecture of all time — two of which happen to be Gensler buildings.

Hoskins said she loves how the Tower at PNC Plaza in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania "defies logic," allowing plenty of fresh air in — even though it's 32 stories tall.
Completed in 2015 and designed by Gensler, the building features a chimney-like system that invites air in through small panels in the facade, while maintaining insulation to keep energy costs low.
The tower serves as PNC's headquarters.
Hoskins adds that the fresh air has proved beneficial for some employees, who have told her it helps them feel more alert and productive.
