Fragmented surfaces

The office complex occupies a five-story building spanning two adjacent plots, aligning with the horizontal flow of the street.

 

Context Integration

Located near a major high-speed road, the building was designed to serve as a landmark. Its dynamic composition features bold, angular surfaces and interlocking diagonal volumes, creating a striking visual identity. This design approach extends across the entire structure, giving the impression that the facade shifts and evolves with the movement of passing vehicles and pedestrians.

 

 

Parametric Design

To address the system of non-orthogonal geometries, a parametric design approach was employed. The surfaces were modeled using triangular forms, onto which vertical elements -blinds that follow the building’s original shape- were later applied. The structure comprises a ground floor, a mechanical floor, five office levels, and a rooftop garden. The core, housing staircases and elevators, is positioned on the northern side of the site, while the remaining sides feature open-plan office spaces with expansive city views.

 

 

Façade Design

On the south-facing facades, aluminum frames are recessed from the building’s boundary, creating semi-open terraces of varying sizes. These terraces follow the structure’s dynamic form and provide natural shading for the offices during the summer months. The north elevation features a solid shell punctuated by vertical openings that extend across all levels. The concept of a dynamic, shifting facade is further emphasized by vertical flap elements that align with the floor slabs. The office entrance is framed by angular, fractured walls of exposed concrete, enhancing the building’s bold aesthetic and reinforcing its overall architectural vision.
