New sustainable office building VB with atrium
Tuesday 10 September 2019
For VB, an internationally operating greenhouse construction company, we are going to build a glass construction for their new office building. This 11 meter high atrium connects the office with the industrial hall. The SP Small Span construction from Smiemans is ideal for creating a pleasant indoor climate. The space that is created is used as a presentation, meeting and relaxation room for employees.
Advantages of atriums for offices and residential complexes
We are increasingly creating atriums for offices and residential complexes. Our clients recognise the advantages of adding a greenhouse structure to an existing building.
More daylight
- Creates a healthy and pleasant living and working environment.
- Increases productivity in offices and well-being in residential complexes, such as the atrium at Planon.
Improved air quality & climate
- Natural ventilation and climate regulation.
- Possibility to add greenery that purifies the air, such as the atrium over the outdoor garden at Hornbaek.
Spatial experience
- Creates an open, light and luxurious look.
- Makes buildings more attractive to tenants, residents and visitors.
Social interaction
- Functions as a central meeting place.
- Encourages contact and collaboration.
Sustainability & energy savings
- Better use of natural light and heat.
- Can contribute to lower energy costs and certifications such as BREEAM or LEED.
Increased value
- Increases the aesthetic and functional value of the property.
- Attracts investors, tenants and residents.
Flexible layout
- Space can be used for multiple purposes (catering, events, green experience).
