The new extension for the Crossroad Offices by OFIS Arhitekti acts as a crossroad regulator between the existing villa and its approach from the street on the south side and the underground parking on the east side. The actual form derives from the main logical directions on the site to the main destinations as the new volume is positioned behind the existing villa with individual cut outs, ‘green bays’, in function of the extended external park coming into the pavilion. Inside they form divisions between internal spaces and create dynamic, light and calming atmosphere. More images and architects’ description after the break.
The existing villa and extension are connected; both, raised ground floor and first floor are on the same level as existing Villa. Both buildings can work together as a single unit or they can work separately which allows more flexibility towards future tenants. Main entrances into the extension are heading Lechgasse on the southeast and garage pedestrian entrance towards the northeast. Old villa can be approached either from these entrances or from separate historical entrance through the porch from the park.
