Bałtyk office tower Poznań

Описание: Bałtyk office tower Poznań, Poland

Together with investment corporation Sophia Sp. z.o.o MVRDV architects completed in 2017 the Baltyk Tower in the Polish city of Poznań. The tower is located at Rondo Kaponiera at the Eastern entrance to the historic city. It features retail and hotel accommodation as well as a panorama restaurant offering breathtaking views of the surrounding city.

This 25,000m² building is divided into 12,000m² office space, 750m² panorama restaurant with a one room hotel, 1350 m² retail in the plinth of the building and three levels of underground parking. The flexible office space is limited to a depth of seven metres allowing daylight to generously penetrate the workspaces.

Bałtyk is also a multifunctional building with innovative interior solutions, and scenic terraces offering panoramic views all across the city. In addition to business-oriented functions, the building will house catering establishments, a fitness club, and an intimate jazz club on the 16th floor. Its close proximity to the reopened Concordia Taste restaurant and Haven square creates social functions that encourage meeting and integrating different communities.

This results in a form which appears completely different depending on the angle it is approached from. Towards the south, a slope of cascading patios offers outdoor spaces to the users of the building. The façade is floor-to-ceiling glass with vertical louvres of glass fibre concrete softening the impact of the sun without losing the vistas over the city and zoo.
