The Headquarters Project designed by Aedas Executive Directors Cary Lau and Henry Chau is a prominent project in Yuhang District, Hangzhou that encompasses the Headquarters Phase 1 and Phase 2 development, providing a range of offices and amenities.
Located to the west of the Future Technology City, Phase 2 enjoys a convenient transportation network with the best view to greenery nearby. The headquarters strive to demonstrate its corporate culture, promote exchange and foster creativity amongst employees.
Located in Caxias do Sul, the building occupies a wide corner, due to the pre-condition of large roads, making them very wide and of great flow. Low-rise and small-scale buildings occupy the surroundings. In this scenario, the building becomes a protagonist, being the focal point for people and vehicles wich pass by.
The commercial building has seven floors: parking basement, three ground floor shops with mezzanine, three floors with four commercial offices each and technical space. The smaller scale of the building (the total constructed area is about 2,000 m²) and the insertion in a corner allowed us to “sculpt” the primary prism and transform it.
‘When I was serving as a rookie private in the korean army I made a good friend with a sergeant who was very kind and open minded,’ explains moon hoon, who designed the project alongside moohoi. ‘we ran into each other few years ago on the street near my home and was informed that he had started a sesame oil business which was based on a new approach. to my surprise, in 2017, he visited my office and commissioned a headquarter building for his business, which included a flagship store and a factory.’
When we originally designed this building, it was located on a long, narrow lot that overlooked Sagredo Street in the San José Insurgentes neighborhood on the short side. The project became complex in addition to its shape because the owner wanted it to house more cars than required by the regulations, shortly after they acquired a plot of land on José María Velazco street which adjoined the existing one at the back and formed an “L” shaped property, which again complicated the project since he wanted the parking to be solved with ramps and not car lifts as in the previous project, this merger changed the project again and plants were achieved that could be divided into four offices per level.
The former Palace of the General Pension Institute is one of the most prominent examples of Functionalist architecture in interwar Czechoslovakia. Inspired, among others, by the work of Le Corbusier, young Avant-garde architects Josef Havlíček and Karel Honzík designed an open-cross plan building – the first Prague skyscraper conceived as a solitaire amongst the typical residential block buildings of the time.
BAID Architekten from Hamburg are responsible for the design of the ALDI Nord Campus in Essen-Kray. The new, signet-like administration building of ALDI Einkauf SE & Co. oHG will eventually provide workspace for up to 2,000 employees.
At the beginning of March, the new ALDI Nord Campus in Essen-Kray was opened after a construction period of almost three years. The building complex, which covers around 100,000 square metres, was designed by BAID Architekten from Hamburg and is a significant milestone in the corporate history of the Essen-based discount supermarket chain. On an area the size of 14 football pitches, the new building offers an ultra-modern, agile working environment. A working environment that provides plenty of room for cooperation and communication in new ways of working. The ALDI Nord Campus is thus a symbol for the transformation process of the ALDI Nord Group.
The new building, which houses LAGO Logistica and LAGO Osteria, was designed by zaettastudio and intends to give a sense to the industrial building, with a bold architecture that explores the lexicon of technological innovation, without neglecting the artisanal and territorial tradition of the company.
Architect Giorgio Zaetta expresses. “We usually work on residential projects, with a home like dimension. The challenge of this project is to create the spirit of a house inside a factory, therefore an industrial architecture not only functional, but also capable of encompassing other values. Beyond the external shape, what distinguishes the project is the quality of the interior space, which manages to create a place to work feeling at home.”
Infobip is a unicorn IT company based in Vodnjan, Istria, where it also built its first campus. The company’s rapid growth has spawned the need for a new hybrid building in Zagreb. Infobip is located on a plot on the southern edge of Zagreb, in a rurban zone bordering New Zagreb, directly next to the corridor of the newly planned avenue that will, once it is built, run along the southern edge of Zagreb. The zone is an entropic and poorly regulated area with low-rise medium-density multi-dwelling buildings lacking both an articulated public space and nature.
The Zemelny Office Building is located close to the Moscow metro station called Ulitsa 1905 Goda. The building is surrounded with the industrial architecture dating back to the last century, while three kilometres away there is the Moscow City business district, and the Zemelny has become a ‘green’ alternative to it.
The tower with a total area of 39000 m2 stands on a 3-floor stylobate and is “enwrapped” with a fishnet diagonal-lattice metal shell. The prototype of this structure is based on the hyperboloid creations by the engineer Shukhov, the author of the Shukhov Radio Tower in Moscow.
The project consists in converting an industrial warehouse into a space with two main uses: 1) temporary accommodation specifically conceived for groups of people 2) organisation and promotion of events (cultural, social, marketing, etc.).
The initial strategy was to try to combine these two realities by creating a set of common areas for the living space with strong character and materiality in order to serve both situations.
