Design

The architectonic project for the Klabin Research, Development and Innovation Center, installed near to the main entrance of Vila Harmonia, Telêmaco Borba, PR, has as guide line, the integration of the architecural ensemble to the surrounding landscape, a quite and pleasant space, especially chosen by the Managers Fabio Schvartsman and Francisco Cesar Razzolini. The area is right in the middle of the generous woods that define the compact green belt around the Unity Klabin Monte Alegre, defined and opened in the forties (1940), for the production of quality paper in total respect to the evironment.

This defining Idea made us think of the ensemble as a “humanized landmark”. It is perfect for the intellectual immersion of the researchers, that will bring their ideas to the Center – united in their constructive intention, and in perfect alignment with the precedent historical buildings, built from the forties to the nineties (1940-1990) in the historic Vila Harmonia.

This way, the definition of a “single skin” that contours and defines its perimeter, by itself, is the architectural ideology. The accentuated and strong horizontal lines, in contrast to the local ambiance, mingles with the landscape, marking the ground with its lines, while sheltering its terraces in the gradual descending slopes of the ground.

Economical and simple – but never ‘plain’ and without unecessary aditional and/ or decorative elements, structure, volumetry and exterior wall enclosure in glass and metals define the project, creating a perfect merge and absortion of the main Idea, of users and occasional visitors to the surrounding landscape.

As a clousure for this reflection, the architetonic intervention can, as time goes by, establish a new paradigma for new consturction and installation of industrial buildings, aiming research and innovation, potentializing with boldness and determination, a different and modern position in the field of an intellectual and intelligent production of Paper and Cellulose.
