Sede da Newe / Estúdio 41

December 29, 2023 Andreas Luco 0

 The redesign of the existing warehouse to house the Newe company headquarters stands out for the introduction of a new volume that encompasses all scheduled activities. It is a box inserted inside another, providing a unique spatial dynamic, characterized by a longitudinal format. This internal layout creates an environment of arrival, welcome and interaction. The architectural proposal incorporates the strategic use of translucent tiles on the roof, in addition to front and side panels made of cobogós. These elements are used with the aim of maximizing the entry of natural light onto the two main surfaces of the external box. This approach not only promotes natural lighting, but also facilitates connection with the adjacent gardens, present on the borders of the space.
