About Bzj Monarcha Teicstílí

Is monarcha teicstílí é Bzj i mBursa na Tuirce, a bhfuil achar urláir iomlán 8000 méadar cearnach aige. Cuirtear feidhmeanna táirgthe, dáilte agus riaracháin le chéile faoi aon díon amháin. Fillteann éadan dúbailte an foirgneamh. Cruthaíonn ballaí cuirtín gloine agus fuinneoga an ciseal istigh, agus cruthaíonn painéil alúmanam pollta an ciseal amuigh. Rialaíonn na painéil phollta an solas nádúrtha agus an teas i rith an lae agus na séasúr. Baineadh úsáid as struchtúr coincréite réamhdhéanta ar mhaithe le luas agus le tíosacht. Fágtar na córais struchtúracha, leictreacha agus mheicniúla le feiceáil sa limistéar riaracháin.

Production Technology
Prefabricated concrete structural system has been chosen as it is fastest and the most economical construction method. This structural feature was taken into account in the design, and all the structural, electrical and mechanical systems were left open to view in the administration area. The custom designed furniture in a predominantly mid century style lends a sense of fun and color, as well as comfort and elegance to the offices and showrooms. By this means it was aimed to strike a new balance with the characteristic features of an industrial building.
Design Challenge
The creative challenge was to use very standard prefabricated concrete structural which was common for industrial buildings in the region. We accepted and adopted this challenge as design input. The other challenge was to remove the bulkiness of the general factories.
Research
The existing factories in the area are visited and analyzed in order to understand the workflow and the operations. The problematic existing flows are redesigned within the concept to provide complete privacy and to protect the intellectual properties.
As the corner land facing south and east, the control of natural lighting is researched. According to the sun's track and the purposes of the spaces within the factory, the perforated second facade is designed.
Inspiration
The idea was to make the building one homogenous object, both in terms of the different sections of the factory – production plant, offices and showroom – and in terms of the exterior appearance. In order to create a visual contrast to the heavy concrete, we let the light shine through the perforated facade which makes the building look very light.
The interaction between the functions of the factory and the land shape both the building and the ground and it manifests itself through the facade
Project Duration
The project is completed in 18 months in Bursa, Turkey
Operation Flow
The operation in the factory is divided in two main section; production and administration/operation and the circulation between these 2 section occurs is in 4 types; blue-collars, white-collars, material/products and customers. The circulations of blue-collars and material/products are heavily intertwined as it requires very close interaction. The circulation of white-collars is the bridge between the production and the customers and interacts with all the functions in the factory. The customer only interacts within the white-collars circulation and with the end products in showrooms. These 4 different circulations are integrated in the design of the factory very carefully to provide maximum privacy and minimum conflict.
