GWM Gerätewerk, Matrei, A
Production and Administration Building
Client: Gerätewerk Matrei
Total Built Area: 11.300 m2
Total Built Volume: 97.500 m3
Construction Start: 07/2004
Completion: 10/2005
Competition: 1st prize, 2004
Following victory in a design competition, ATP was commissioned to provide the masterplanning and integrated design services for the construction of a new facility for the manufacture of heating and cooking equipment and sheet metal items. The core of the concept was the bringing together of two previously separated facilities.
Both the corporate culture of the client (a production cooperative) and the theme of top-quality metalwork led to the central idea of the strip facade. A projected metal structure seeks to formally integrate the otherwise clearly separate volumes of the various functions (production, storage, research and administration) as a means of reinforcing the cooperative ideal. Central to the image is the notion of metal and the various high-value ways in which it can be deployed.
