Project • By STENI ASShopping Centres

Sirkus Shopping Centre

An old and slightly worn-down shopping centre in Trondheim has given way to a brand new, tasteful and hyper-modern shopping centre with 100 businesses and 81 flats.According to architect Ole Wiig, STENI façade panels were chosen because the Sirkus Shopping Centre is a building with large wall surfaces, so it was important to choose a material that would not cost too much and which would stand the test of time. To break up the grey façades, they have added a number of horizontal red band (with lights) and used the same red colour around the windows. More

Black House

This four bed family house sits in the heart of the Kent countryside surrounded by mature trees and gardens.   The house encompasses a mixture of framed and linear views across four carefully sculpted gardens that aim to each capture a piece of the surrounding landscape.   Inspired by the building and land topography of Dungeness, located on the south Kent coast, this house is a collection of five modules clustered around a central courtyard. The Black House’s rectangular massing was divided into blocks by key site axes, a view from the pool to a large populus tree, and a previous path to the site. Each block is linked to a distinct aspect of the garden, with a final connecting view provided from the roof of a brick towe... More

NAVE INDUSTRIAL ACEITES URZANTE

The project carried out to house the new facilities and production plant of Aceites Urzante, responds to the needs of technological innovation, energy saving and reduction of environmental impact. Umetal intervenes in the project with the treatment of the main facade, providing value from different perspectives. On one hand, it manages to respond to the will of aesthetic and landscape integration of the building. But, in addition, in a poetic language, plays with the concept of origin of the product (olive trees) reproducing a photograph of olive trees in large format. The treatment of the image, pretends to break with the common advertising concept, with the expression of a real photography. And for that reason the perforated plate used... More
