The building that was designed for industrial companies and small trades only has a few structural, technical installations. On the other hand, the design maximises the flexibility of the building.
Industrial space which is highly economical and flexible
Trucks of up to 40 tons can drive up to the 1st floor and small vans to the second. The third floor is accessible by car. Twelve loading ramps on the ground floor which are directly connected to goods lifts, and the central delivery axes guarantee direct distribution of the goods. Even the roof can serve as a storage area for materials.
The open stair towers and the sculpture-like entrance and departure ramps are architecturally striking.
This is an innovative concept which allows industrial zones to be compressed.
