EPA office block, Szczecin 2009

EPA headquarters building

The area where the investment project is situated, lies in northern part of Szczecin, in the Warszewo District. The plot is located on a southern slope and has a terrace layout. The designed building fits in south-eastern part of the plot. The main entrance to the facility is accentuated by a “green wall” element and water sheet, and a glass canopy roof that gives an impression of lightness and the integration of the building with greenery. This emphasises the pro-ecological profile of EPA activity. We have also designed a wooden observation deck with architectural detail elements. The following layout has been approved: three two-storey building wings connected by a main functional-communication core, glazed by an inside patio. The architectonic composition of the building has been based on a combination of a characteristic southern arched shape and a two-winged, perpendicular northern part. We have also designed an underground garage.
