The Design
About Bradco Fabrička zgrada
Bradco je industrijska zgrada projektovana za proizvodnju kaiševa za satove i luksuzne kožne galanterije u Castelo de Paivi, u Portugalu. Fabrika je koncipirana oko prirodnog svetla. Na krovu je postavljeno nekoliko krovnih prozora kako bi proizvodni prostor ostao svetao za zaposlene. Kamen iz regiona korišćen je na spoljašnjosti, zajedno sa staklom i čelikom, kako bi se zgrada povezala sa svojim okruženjem. Velike staklene površine stvaraju transparentnost između enterijera i okolnog pejzaža. Projekat je realizovan između 2019. i 2020. godine.
