-배의 곡선을 닮은 오피스 [ BIG ] 1200 Intrepid

BIG-1200 Intrepid

 

건물의 이중 곡선형 프리캐스트 콘크리트 파사드는 안쪽으로 구부러져 도시의 캐노피를 만든다. 도시 그리드에 의해 형성되는 처마 장식과 너머지 입면은 네이비야드의 마스터 플랜의 직교 디자인으로 돌아가 건물의 이중 곡선을 형성하고이웃의 두 가지 지배적인 형태를 혼합한다.

1200 Intrepid is a LEED Gold office building shaped by the encounter between Robert Stern’s master plan of rectangular city blocks and James Corner’s iconic, circular Central Green Park. 

 

The building’s double curved, pre-cast concrete façade bows inwards to create a generous urban canopy that responds to the ‘shock wave’ of the park’s circular running track, activity pods and planting vignettes - rippling outwards like rings in water to invade the building’s footprint. Shaped by the city grid, the cornice and remaining elevations return to the orthogonal design of the Navy Yard's master plan, forming the building's double curve and melding the neighborhood’s two dominant forms.

 

Referencing the Navy Yard’s maritime history while providing much needed natural light, a functioning periscope penetrates the core of the building, projecting views of the Navy Yard basin into the center of the elevator lobby. Visitors and employees can admire the mothballed ships sitting in the adjacent docks while embracing Central Green Park - connecting the building and its inhabitants to their surroundings.
