This re-imagining of an Ulrich Franzen masterpiece, delicately updates materials, and reconfigures its use adapting it for a corporate headquarters of a shipping company.The division of the individual spaces generates the creation of volumes stand distant enough to structure so that its original features are still primary to the whole. The use of wood louver cladding provides for privacy and warmth to an otherwise steril office environment.
