OPIS: Due to the proximity of the Tri-City Landscape Park, we wanted to merge the building with the environment in the least invasive way. For this reason, green areas were arranged in such a way that the 600-metre long facade of the building is covered with vines changing colour with the seasons. Another idea to minimise negative impact of a large commercial building was to locate a linear park along the front facade, forming public space with numerous attractions. They include walking and cycling paths and numerous resting places with designer seats, and the area benefits from spectacular floodlights.
