About One Line Studio Zyrë Arkitekturore

One Line Studio është një ndërtesë zyre arkitekturore në Denver, Kolorado. Dizajni formon një vijë figurative midis tokës dhe qiellit. Një mur i pjerrët prej çeliku të ndryshkur natyrshëm ankoron njërin skaj, ndërsa një buzë e hollë çatie ngrihet drejt majave malore përtej. Fasada e xhamtë ndërpritet nga fletë vertikale prej kedri që zbutin shkëlqimin verbues. Panelet prej druri të laminuar me kunja shërbejnë njëkohësisht si strukturë dhe si sipërfaqe e përfunduar, ndërsa thellësitë e alternuara të paneleve përmirësojnë akustikën e brendshme. Barërat vendase ofrojnë privatësi në lartësinë e uljes dhe e lidhin ndërtesën me ligatinat e afërta.

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.

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.
