White Fox Global Headquarters

The White Fox Global Headquarters consolidates workplace, content production, and staff amenities within a 13,000-square-metre repurposed building. Designed by PMG for the Australian fashion brand, the project treats the headquarters as both a functional workplace and an extension of White Fox’s public identity. Rather than approaching the building as a conventional office fit-out, the intervention makes substantial modifications to the existing structure while retaining and adapting its primary fabric. The most significant is a 285-square-metre, three-storey atrium created by cutting through the existing concrete floor slabs. Four large openings, each approximately 20 by 10 metres, required extensive carbon-fibre reinforcement to re... More

Durlet

The extension of the Durlet school generates a series of straightforward geometries, adressing complex contextual and structural questions. The existing built environment consists of a neo-Flemish renaissance court building from the late 19th century with three adjacent wings, renovated in the 1960s. The client wishes to construct a fourth wing referring to the initial plan, but due to an apartment building right next to the building plot, urbanism regulations do not allow a fourth wing of the same volume. Hence multiple ideas of exception. The socle of the building, executed in precast double walls and its floors in polished concrete, follows the general figure of the building conglomerate and organises the entrance. The upper floors are... More

Metalworkers’ Union Headquarters

To value hard work: that is the union’s main concern. This is something to be expressed often, be it in actions or in the words or gestures. The building that houses the union is one big gesture that symbolizes this idea-force. It wants to be present in the city’s scenery because it is proud of its mission. It wants to be open to all gazes, transparent and welcoming, because it has nothing to hide. Its inner square fits all its fights and claims. ​From that comes our idea to create the room for collective work, all interconnected, solidary, committed, simultaneous. The structure is clean, simple and airy.On the West façade, the longer one, the curves in motion resemble aligned flags.The auditorium integrates itself to the foyer and the gal... More

T+A HOUSE

This house is located in an old sector of Chicureo, municipality of Colina, has a big terrain, which provides freedom of design in terms of the layout and orientation.From the above, the real challenge is to achieve greater control and efficiency for external factors; as the great thermal oscillations between the seasons of the year, solar radiation, pollution and intrusions of third parties to the property. All this without sacrificing spatial quality, functionality, luminosity, views or ventilation.The house is arranged crosswise to the ground, orienting its main facade towards the west, which also faces the street. This façade is made up of walls that are rather hermetic and, very controlled windows, and protected from sunlight after noo... More
