The townhouse has three stories and is constructed
with solid but lightweight gray bricks that are arranged
in a visually appealing pattern. The building
is easily visible as it is located right on a street corner.
The design of the new office is a successful
attempt to reflect the studio’s identity while considering
the context of its surroundings. The façade
is easily visible from both the front and the side.
The architect intentionally chose materials that
were affordable, easy to maintain, and could be
conveniently modified. Lightweight concrete blocks
were chosen as the primary material to help showcase
the studio’s unique characteristics.
During a site inspection of one of the studio’s own
projects, the architect noticed broken or cut lightweight
block. This piqued the architect’s interest
in the cylindrical void inside each block and how it
is divided into semi-circular forms. The EKOBLOK
is a specific type of lightweight block that is designed
to be highly durable, despite its relatively
light weight, thanks to the holes in the inner part
of the material. The architect found inspiration in
the idea of reimagining and repurposing the blocks’
physical properties to create something new and
different, whether it be form, installation, or application.
