“Semi – detached”

As a response to the client’s brief of having an office building for either one or two tenants on the 600 sqm site, the design evolved into two semi-detached volumes which define the main building elevation.

Internal flexibility 

The offices are located side by side and share a common non-structural wall. Two vertical cores are placed in the middle and to the back allowing them to be used as one, should the two offices be rented out to a single tenant.

Building components

The architecture also responds to the building regulations which allow for two full floors and a smaller roof annex. This is expressed in the building’s volumetric and components: basement parking, building entrance(s), and the two rentable spaces. The roof is used as additional space accessible from the prime office on top.
