The project was completed in 2018 and incorporates environmental sustainability, indoor environmental quality and modularity of the intervention to enable future expansions. The LEED v4.1 O+M: EB certification was chosen to demonstrate the quality of the design and implementation of the project, and it received Platinum certification status in October 2023, which confirms what was previously stated.
Each floor measures approximately 300 square meters, providing ample space for various activities. The work spaces have been designed to ensure an outside view from every point of the open space.
On the ground floor there are the spaces dedicated to public relations, including the entrance, reception area, administration offices, meeting room, materials library, and relax room. These spaces are bordered by glass walls, allowing for an abundance of natural light.
Moving up to the first floor there are two large open. These spaces are separated by the stairs block and offer a total area of approximately 230 square meters. The first space, measuring around 80 square meters, is an open area specifically designed for Project Management, facilitating efficient client relations. The second space, spanning approximately 150 square meters, is dedicated to the Design Department, encompassing various disciplines such as architecture, structures and plants.
To ensure optimal indoor comfort, a state-of-the-art domotic system has been implemented. This system allows for remote management of the air conditioning, lighting, irrigation, and alarm systems. Six sensors have been installed since the inauguration of the building in order to monitor many parameters of air quality in order to constantly ensure maximum environmental health.
Along the sides facing the road, a balcony is enclosed by a fixed vertical sunshade made of aluminum profiles. The sides facing the courtyard feature large full height windows. These windows are filtered by green treated blades that run perpendicular to the elevations.
The building structure consist of a steel perimeter frame that is reinforced by concrete elements such as the stair block and walls. The building envelope is constructed using a dry structure composed of metal profiles anchored to the load-bearing structure.
The exterior lighting of the building is achieved through the use of downward-facing LEDs, which enhance the night-time ambiance. Inside the building, the general lighting is achieved through hidden strip LED lights on the wings of the beams, creating a sense of order and structure.
