The Design

About One Line Studio Oifig Ailtireachta

Is foirgneamh oifige ailtireachta é One Line Studio in Denver, Colorado. Cruthaíonn an dearadh líne fháthchiallach idir an talamh agus an spéir. Feistíonn balla claonta de chruach mheirgthe go nádúrtha ceann amháin den fhoirgneamh, agus éiríonn imeall tanaí an dín i dtreo bheanna na sléibhte thall. Briseann eití ingearacha céadrais isteach ar an aghaidh ghloinithe, rud a mhaolaíonn an dallrú. Feidhmíonn painéil adhmaid lannaithe le duail mar struchtúr agus mar dhromchla críochnaithe araon, agus feabhsaíonn doimhneachtaí ailtéarnacha na bpainéal fuaimíocht an taobh istigh. Tugann féara dúchasacha príobháideacht ag airde suíocháin agus nascann siad an foirgneamh le bogaigh in aice láimhe.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: Forming a figurative ‘line’ between the ground and the sky, a canted, naturally rusted steel wall anchors one end of the structure while a thin roof edge ascends toward the sky beyond, framing an outward looking glazed expanse. The vitrified façade is interrupted by a series of vertical cedar fins that soften glare and appear to climb toward the sky from the native grasses below.
Dimensions & Packaging: The primary structure balances DLT panels, steel, and concrete. Compression clips fasten glazing to steel structure, eliminating redundant framing. DLT panel expansion joints integrate AC diffusers, and adjustable rope light fixtures nestle within the recesses of alternating 2x6 and 2x8 DLT panels. Stair treads are made of Paralam while desks are created from locally sourced, reclaimed wood. A special variance was sought to use native grasses connecting the landscape to the nearby wetlands.
Tags: architecture, office, denver, colorado, studio, design, dlt, prefab, prefabricated wood panels, rusted steel,
Production Technology: Our team was captivated by the benefits of dowel laminated timber, DLT, for its ability to serve both as a structural component and finished panel system. The modular, prefabricated, factory checked consistency of DLT panels easily tolerate on site adjustments to accommodate construction errors while providing sustainable and biophilic benefits. The panels are a result of a seamless collaboration between One Line Studio and International Timber Frames in Golden, Canada.
Design Challenge: Experiment with innovative construction techniques that showcase a plethora of design possibilities.
Research: Architecture as a figurative line between the ground and the sky, framing a connection to nature
Inspiration: Aspiring towards the mountain peaks, a soaring elevation frames its natural setting composed of wetland vegetation, natural grasses, and woodlands. An interior atmosphere is delineated between a timber wall and a curtain of suspended glass, thinly veiling the threshold between inside and outside.
Project Duration: Location: Denver, Colorado
Start to finish: 7 years, including planning
Operation Flow: The use of alternating depth DLT panel walls adjust and optimize the interior acoustics of the studio. The design endeavors to establish a creative work environment that encourages collaboration while retaining a constant connection to exterior landscape. Main level privacy at seating height is ensured through tall native grasses that open the vistas as one stands up. The Mezzanine level opens up to its surroundings offering direct views of the mountains.
