CONCEPT
to developing the
business center of
Ankara
312 Vista Office Tower is distinguished from its surroundings by its unique design: a simple geometric glass volume encasing a stack of large-scale, horizontal, adjustable wood louvers, set in a lush garden. Integration of environmental design, state-of-the-art IT infrastructure, comfort of the interior office environments, superior indoor air quality, and access to natural light and views are aimed at enhancing the sense of well-being. All this positive contributes to the work environment and increased productivity
The tower’s offset core within the narrow building footprint and its uniquely high ceilings together create more efficient usable space that takes advantage of unobstructed views, and allows natural light into all areas. Deep horizontal mullions on the exterior control solar gain, while interior operable wood louvers, integral to the curtain wall system, give tenants individual daylight control.
The tower’s tall, narrow proportions and the scale and repetition of the horizontal bands of glass and wood achieve a level of artistic design that lends stature to the project.
