Structural beams made of solid BSH wood, incorporated into the façade, not only give the building a strong vertical rhythm, but also constitute an integral part of the building’s aesthetics. The two-story building with an area of ​​3,191 m2 was designed in mixed technology, combining elements of reinforced concrete, wood and prefabricated modules.

”Designing modern office buildings is our specialty, and working on the headquarters of the Regional Directorate of State Forests was a unique challenge for us” – says Bogumiła Kasprzyk, project manager at Ekoinbud.

The use of a system of reneable energy sources, including heat pumps and photovoltaic panels are making the building more energy efficient. The whole thing has been adapted to the surroundings, and the greenery surrounding the building not only plays a compositional role, but also fits into the ecological context.
