Design Details
- Unique Properties
- The project was visualized as an experiential interaction between the user and the Mercedes brand. The resulting combination of multi-level green terraces and ramped vehicular access, allows for vehicles to be brought into the important activity spaces, such as the Show Car area, Vintage Museum, and Auditorium, where functions and product launches are held.
- Inspiration
- The building Form is understated and avoids an overpowering entry, opting instead to preserve the horizontality of the site. Visualized as a series of terraced pavilions linked by ramps, the showroom display pavilion is predominant. Extending as a long element, parallel to and poised above the road level, its design provides maximum exposure for vehicle exhibits.
