Office in the Forest

I saw this office several months ago and now I added it for future publication. I had not seen such before. The offices of Google, Apple or Adobe turnips to eat before that. Do not want them. This is it a modern office, which would peg the greatest pleasure. Many Bulgarian publications have blogs about it, but it’s worth and I can write one. And then with a little info in it, not just with pictures. The office is new and is of Spanish architectural firm Selgas Cano. It is built on their own project, and thanks to the filming of Iwan Baan and we can enjoy it. And I, and others who have written about it, call it an office in the woods, but apparently no one delve into Google Maps. The office is actually located a few meters from the street in a residential neighborhood in Madrid. I just got a lot of greenery around and it seems that the building is in the middle of forest. It’s very nice that retained vegetation around. No parking, no road, no concrete. And it has a wooden path on which employees can reach their jobs on foot or by bicycle. The trail passes into the stairs and dug into the ground on which to enter the building. Entrance was a small part of the rear wall and floor in the middle of the building. So do not infringe too much pipe structure. A building is actually just that – a Trabi.
Is half buried in the ground. Half of the front, north wall that sticks out above the surface and half the windows are covered by 20 millimeters thick curved acrylic panels. The other half of the roof and back wall are made of insulated sandwich of fiberglass and polyester and does not allow direct access to sunlight. Walls have small canopies, which are lifted in a fun way – with counterweights. I wonder how I will feel a person if, for example by walking his dog sensed something in navre and shrubs. Tore after him and the trees in front of you comes modernist dugout full of people. Not to mention if it is dark and the lights are light on inside. Must be quite an attractive sight.
