Crafting Sustainable Elegance
The contemporary building that went up in its stead houses offices and additional spaces such as exhibition areas, classrooms and welfare facilities. Meticulous attention was paid at the design stage to ensure that the building envelope is energy-efficient and aesthetically pleasing; a bioclimatic, sustainable approach enabled the project to successfully achieve LEED.
Deerns Solutions
Designing a compact building and crafting a custom-designed, eye-catching façade is an exciting challenge Deerns took on. The façade features a distinctive pattern that alternates between thick construction elements, inspired by the tread pattern on some of Pirelli’s most iconic tyres, and ample, lightweight, transparent window frontage. For Deerns, the substantial challenge on this job was to harmonise these two distinct elements while maintaining an unwavering commitment to optimising the building envelope’s energy performance.
