Labiran


Labiran printing service company was in the process of expansion. In line with this growth, the company required new space in accordance with the brand, for which they proposed to refurbish and expand their old building. In order to do so the old building was incorporated into the neighboring plot to unite and augment two small urban plots to form a cohesive and connected office and print workshop. The concept was to transform the enclosed traditional workflow of the firm into a more transparent and adaptable service.

The original concept was to transform the enclosed traditional workflow of the firm into a more transparent and adaptable service.
Integrating two neighboring plots’ spaces through eliminating border walls and design one cohesive interior space and a connected façade. 

Eliminating the interior non-structural walls and re-arrange the space organization so that the print machines are multiplied and upgraded, an interconnected reception lounge and showroom for clients is incorporated, design and packaging unit is expanded and the old kitchenette is replaced with a colorful vibrant staff bar. Managing office and meeting room are placed in-between two plots as connecting and supervising buffers.

The showroom is located on the upper floor of the new extension connecting to reception lounge through a new exposed staircase. The curtain wall screen separating the space form the exterior yard is facing west. Besides the need for radiation control, our main concept for this part of the façade was to be able to see through but not be seen which creates an ambiguous perception for observers. So as to achieve such an objective, we designed a gridded double-façade composed of 230 locally-manufactured GFRC cuboid panels produced in three different modules. Panels’ specific configuration help to control the radiation while creating an ever-changing play of light and shadow.
