Facade study administration building, Augsburg
Competition 2013
Germany's largest personnel service provider for hotels and restaurants invites entries for a competition for the façade design and a building design for the main branch with administration, restaurants, hotel and underground parking garage in Augsburg. The leitmotif of the façades of the two main buildings is a colorful barcode that picks up on elements and colors of the existing corporate identity and transfers them to a corporate architecture in the form of a façade concept. Based on a construction grid, the barcode is based on four modules of different widths, which define either a colored panel or a façade opening.
Based on the CI color of the company, three harmonizing colour families in red, orange and pastel shades are combined floor by floor to create a lively overall façade.
The façade reacts in a differentiated way to the various areas of use behind it and thus characterizes the modern appearance of the building and the company to the outside world.
Façade study for administration building, Augsburg
Competition 2013
Germany's largest personnel service provider for hotels and gastronomy is inviting entries for a competition for the design of the façade and a building design for the headquarters with administration, gastronomy, hotel and underground car park in Augsburg. The leitmotif of the façades of the two main buildings is a colored barcode that takes up elements and colors of the existing corporate identity and transfers them to a corporate architecture in the form of a façade concept. Underlying the barcode, based on a construction grid, are four modules of different widths, which define either a colored panel or an opening in the façade. Starting from the CI colour of the company, colour codes of three harmonizing colour families in red, orange and pastel tones are joined together storey by storey, resulting in a lively overall façade. The façade reacts differently to the different areas of usage behind, and thus characterizes the modern appearance of both the building and the company.
