Project of showroom for "Ekookna"

The projected building of the showroom is intended for the company, which produces windows and stained glass windows. This project was an attempt to analyze the relationship of elements such as a wall, opening in the wall and the window and try to change particularly the role of the window. In most cases, a window as part of the building is a secondary element. Our task was to make the window larger and even independent significance. In this project, the window does not appear as an element that fills the opening in the wall, it’s an independent and fasad-making  and even volume-making element. The windows are combined into a single volume, which affects both the facade and on the interior layout.

On the ground floor are a hall for receiving visitors, showroom with exhibits and individual rooms and meeting areas of sales. On the mezzanine floor is a classroom.

The building of the showroom adjacent to the building of a production hall, which the company's products are made.
