Data centres almost never look like architecture. This one does. A four-storey volume clad in aluminium cassettes, with vertical strips of integrated light running across the surface. The façade shifts through the day — in daylight a precise metal plane, at dusk the building starts to work as a light object.
A black plinth divides the volume into two horizontal registers. Below — loading gates and the technical level. Above — a rhythmic cassette surface with vertical accents. The whole thing reads clearly despite its scale.
The office block stands apart — and looks different. Panoramic glazing, warm light from within, trees in the space. This is the entry point and the face of the facility for everyone who comes here. The closed data centre and the open office work together — each block does exactly what it was designed for.
