Text description provided by the architects.
CMPLX is a conjuration of seven warehouses at the heart of Al Quoz, forming part of the Arts and Culture District.
In response to current social considerations, a blind facade and staggered arrangement were implemented to isolate users from the surrounding streets.
The mezzanine floor extends beyond the ground, acting as a cantilever to gain more floor space and, most importantly, create shaded green corridors between the buildings.
The configuration of the warehouses revolves around the central public garden, serving as a singular dedicated pedestrian space.
Nature and sunlight flood the internal environments, embracing an alternative approach to common warehouse architecture.
