The ambition of the project is to delineate the production site’s boundaries with a continuous wall, creating an enclosed urban block within a productive suburban area. The building “thickens” this wall near the corner, dividing the internal space from the external area, incorporating an internal garden and public spaces along the street. The facade filters light into the building through varying degrees of openness, adjusting to sun exposure and the desired level of interior privacy.
