cepezed's inventive attitude featured

Tue, 17 Jan 2012 08:44:06 +0000

Though architects can choose from an abundance of construction products and materials, what they'd love to use most is often not available. In such a case, one can select an exisiting solution, tailor a project-specific answer to the problem at hand, or develop a new product apt for serial production and/or further development during future projects.

The architects of cepezed are specialized in the latter mode of operation, which leads to interesting innovations in the construction branch. In the January issue of Dutch trade journal de Architect, Philip Allin describes the inventive attitude of the office, that has a lot of different product developments to its name. Through three recent projects, Allin shows the offices' principles and methods as well as their results.

"Whatever you think of it," Allin concludes, "the quality is undeniably high and present. And in comparison to the output of a lot of other offices, that is an art in itself."

The new business center ESIC will be opened on December 8^th on the SpaceBusinesspark in Noordwijk.

The Dutch municipality of Noordwijk is primarily known for the presence there of the European Space Research & Technology Centre (ESTEC), the largest branch of the European Space Agency (ESA). To retain auxiliary activities, especially in the long term, and to create a vital infrastructure for this purpose, the municipality has initiated the Space Business Park, a business estate entirely devoted to knowledge-intensive, mainly aviation and space-travel-related companies. The European Space Innovation Centre (ESIC) is a collective corporation building on this park. Sustainability, flexibility, an industrial allure and an above-average price-quality ratio were important starting points in the design process for this building.
