EXCEPTIONAL FAÇADE WITH HIGH FUNCTIONALITY

The design of the building responds to the restrictions imposed by the building regulations as well as to the schedule of accommodation for the different floors, and develops an encasing figure that encloses all the activities of the bank in a continuous form. The continuity of the envelope conveys identity to both staff and customers, while the building’s volumetric shaping ensures it a striking role in the appearance of the town. It is made of ALUCOBOND® whose colour might awaken associations with coins. To the east and the west the façade is perforated by narrow window openings at calculated positions. The windows are arranged in a specially developed layout. This layout allows unfamiliar views outside, but also offers the staff an almost intimate work atmosphere and provides protection against glare for those working at computers. The interior is formulated as a regulated system of reference on various levels of meaning: Firstly, in terms of spaces and materials it forms a single entity with the building’s external form. The material used for the external shell provides the starting point for the concept of materials used in the interior. Like the façade, the window reveals and the fan coils are cladded with ALUCOBOND®. The suspended ceilings on the upper floor are made in the same colour so that the building envelope is drawn into the interior. Secondly, in directing the relationship between indoor and outdoor space. The office walls onto the corridor zones are, in principle, to be made as a system of glass partitions whose degree of transparency can be modified by the use of foils. This means that views inside, outside and through the building can be directed as required, transparency and spatial depth can be experienced, and indeed outdoor space and the landscape are brought into the innermost area of the building. The interior design is intended to allow spatial relationships, not to block them. Thirdly, as a depiction of the company’s internal organization. The structural layout of the building and the articulation of the façade on a basic grid of 1.30 m allows the office partition walls to be positioned flexibly within the given grid system. This allows rooms of different sizes to be made that respond to various functions and needs and, where necessary, can be easily altered. Open, semi-open or closed areas can be easily made in different formulations. The plans of the different floors illustrate this system’s high degree of flexibility. Monotony and repetition are avoided; different functions and levels of organization can be depicted. Fourthly, as an articulated body of rules of communication. The partitions between the individual offices are made of glass or have a high-level strip of glazing that varies in height. The different amounts of glazing articulate the different amount or degree of communication required.
