Bureau Bouwtechniek undertook a comprehensive study that assessed daylight, shade, visibility, and maintenance parameters.
“The vertical deep wooden slats keep out direct sunlight and the soft-white lacquered horizontal fins reflect diffused daylight into the offices,” says evr-architecten.
While the vertical slats are not movable, they are angled in different directions in order to manage daylight penetration throughout the day and to improve comfort levels in warm summer months. The thermally treated slats are made from FSC-certified pine and give the facade a rhythmic appearance.
