Expansion of the Industrial Complex
In the coming years, the client plans to expand its production complex with three new buildings. The spatial placement and overall dimensions of these buildings have already been determined, along with the technological concept. Our task is to propose a conceptual design for the exterior of these new structures and to plan the landscape arrangement of the expanded area.
The main idea of this design solution is to dress the volumes of buildings in facade membranes. In this way we can achieve a cohesive and unified appearance for the industrial structures, despite their inherent diversity in shape and size. This concept of »dressing up« can later on be extended to the existing buildings and any potential further expansion.
The concept of the facade membrane was developed with sustainability in mind. The membrane is namely perforated and thus acts as a shade, while still letting in enough of daylight and allowing views of the surrounding area.
The northern facade of the primary new building incorporates a green facade concept. Climbing plants are utilized to establish a vertical green curtain in response to the proposed park situated in front of it.
The facade membranes are designed according to two principles. The primary production facility, featuring numerous windows, has a network of metal facade supports to which a layer of thinner mesh is attached. The other two buildings, a warehouse and an energy facility, have fewer openings and their facade membranes addopt a more plastic form. It acts as a perforated folded metal facade. With a consistent approach in materiality but different approach in spatial dimensions, we can immediately indicate the function of each individual building. The primary facade covering is a thin layer of plaster, allowing for a range of color shades and contributing to a unified yet varied aesthetic.
The external arrangement aligns with the existing urban and architectural conditions of the location.
In the eastern part of the area, next to the warehouse, there is a delivery yard, entrance and exit of trucks and an entrance for employees. Internal road connections within the area and pedestrian areas are situated between the buildings. In the northern part of the considered area, north of the main building, a park with native vegetation, walking paths for active employee breaks and urban equipment is planned. To retain traffic connectivity within the area a connection between the main building and the warehouse is designed in a form of an external bridge that allows transport vehicles to pass under it.
