International Contest Construction of the New Lands Commission’s National and Regional Headquarters Building

3TI Progetti with Cityförster and Atenastudio, has worked on preliminary design for the New Lands Commission’s National and Regional Headquarters Building and has won design contest organized by Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources.

Furthermore, 3TI has worked on detailed design and has the charge for operations management. This project involved the design, construction and fit-out of the new headquarters and regional office building. The building’s design symbolizes a new spirit of transparency and efficiency, while its form and + orientation respond to conditions imposed by the tropical environment.

The new environmentally friendly structure makes widespread use of renewable energy sources. The facade of the building features several diamond-shaped panels whose that all follow the lowest solar angle while providing shade and filtered natural light. The building is raised above the ground to create a large shaded area underneath and allow the landscape to flow under and inside the building.
