Roca Agro Offices

The project is located on the side of the most important highway to the city. It is in a characteristic mountainous sector of this area.

To maximize the site at the lowest possible cost, both economic and environmental, and trying to integrate the building into the landscape, we took the decision of reconstituting it with the architecture.

The client proposed a heterogeneous program of needs. It is functionally divided into two parts.

In the area of the ravine, overlooking the main street, we design the administrative and commercial offices, the meeting room with services on the first floor, all of them elevated over the site, leaving room for the building services.

The materials were adapted to the requirements of the program, environment and construction phases. Exposed concrete was used to detach from the ground in one case and to contain it in another.

We used metal structure for the bridge and the warehouse, and the Steel Frame system to lighten the weight due to seismic issues and construction phases.

Sewer and water services were non-existent so a sewage treatment plant was installed and a water well was drilled.

The "limes" is the intermediate space between the center and periphery, a place of contrasts, links, mediation and harmony.

The project met its requirements and also transgressed the limits of its territory, involving new buildings of the environment that incorporated its materiality.
