Working, researching & building community

Technopark R&D Building

Location: Voronezh, Russia
Client: VDK

Programme: 5.000 m² office building complex with supporting uses

Technopark in Voronezh will become a new destination for R&D related services and companies. Located adjacent to a shopping center, the new complex aims at creating space for a business community to evolve.

The structure of the building uses the archetype of the office slab and – by combining several rows – creates and megastructure with open spaces and courtyards on different levels. This approach not only delivers community spaces, it also greatly improves the flexibility. Very small and very large offices are possible, providing a future proof layout that can be adapted to the changing demands.

The facades are all full glas with the outward looking facades having an additional layer of wooden louvers for shading and as a visual ‘curtain’.
