Saint-Gobain Glass - "Floating" Offices In The Atrium
03 Jan 2010
 

The new office building of Dresdner Solarwatt AG surprises with a special inner façade.
With the new office building of Solarwatt AG Dresden has yet another architectural highlight: three apparently “floating” meeting rooms in plasterboard lightweight construction had to be integrated into the inner façade of the atrium in such a way that they are seen as suspended bodies from inside as well as from outside.

They are a regular source of astonishment for customers and visitors. The projections which have a large oval form and are finished in a radiant dark yellow can be seen at the Solarwatt location on Maria-Reich-Strasse, where solar modules have been developed and produced for more than 16 years.

On the ground floor of the building, two of the cells stand at an angle to each other and are used as meeting rooms. On the first floor, the third element accommodates the production management in an open-plan office. The overall structure resembles an "egg" from inside the building.
