existing elevations
The project task was to merge a program inside the given volume and redefine existing elevations. The existing sections had to remain the same. A client’s company produce and merchandise safety equipment and devices which had to be stored in the 2/3 of the volume. The program was defined and inserted into 4 divisions following functional demands: Offices – storage loading – central storage – storage with attached loading.

The project scheme incorporated storage for goods of different sizes with loading areas, store, offices and classroom for lectures of safety.
The elevation cuts break the functional façade grid and reinstate flowing concrete elements in between translucent screens; Offices with transparent double-glazed façade, storage spaces with semi-translucent polycarbonate elements and two openings on the back as loading dock doors.

Materials are polished concrete, glass, metal and polycarbonate plates.

Brilliant! the snap together construction seems very straightforward and the end result is quite clean and contemporary, makes for visually intriguing forms and facades. Very good idea that is executed masterfully on this project.
First, let me say that I enjoy this project and the photographs are beautiful, but I feel duty-bound to ask why linoleum style flooring was used on the interior stairs and floors when the concrete job was so beautifully done elsewhere?
Linoleum? There is tile or stone in the stairs.
i love concrete and yellow. i was bound to like this!
I really like how OFIS knows how do to really good projects out of given situations

Excellent; Especially considering the starting task and the brief. This project’s result is the top mark.

It’s tough to use that many materials on a small project, but I think they have done a great job with it.
Tastefull, with right feeling
great example of effective simplicity
Respect to OFIS guys, they know how to do something out of nothing
Playfull concrete box, I like the elevations
would love to see the details, especially of that highlighted corner.
well done, sexy elevations
Very inspiring
My kind of architecture, nothing to add, nothing to take
Oh, my…. have they ever gone wrong?
It’s nice to see where Slovenia is going, since days of Ravnikar and Plecnik are far behind. Such a small country, and so many great architects. It always amazes me. Congrats!
Fully agree with you, three zed
