We created a DYNAMIC FACADE that can change its appearance throughout the day.
The TRANSLUCENT MATERIAL reveals different depths and shadows by the way the sun light changes.
LIGHTENING is essential on this project, by night it can turn into a big lamp, representing the brightness of technology associated with the company product.
The facade its consists of a series of FIXED AND PIVOT SHUTTERS that can be easily operated by the users as wanted, changing the way light passes to the interior and the visual contact with the environment.
This facade can also be appropriated by the people, providing a covered EXTERIOR SPACE for leisure or taking a brake during work.
One of the primary goals was not to change the infrastructure of the building or doing major reconstruction of the facade so we developed a LIGHT METAL STRUCTURE that can be mounted with less trouble.
This system also incorporates the existent top balcony at the east side, embracing it and transforming the previous building volume, giving it more MINIMAL AND ABSTRACT look.
We considered the LOGO one important component to be presented in this design so we introduced it in the shutters, being noticed by day and night. We designed it in a way that it can be visible was people go up the street, and still appear if the shutters are open.
More windows can be opened or changed without affecting the overall aspect of the building.
