Calle 59, La Plata
The new offices for GlobalLogic in La Plata were built near downtown, in a double size plot. There was a small two-storey building facing the street. The new building quadrupled the existing area, while a backyard was opened for recreational use. The main facade kept unchanged, for discretion and to keep the shape of the block.
Main public spaces are located on the ground floor: lobby, reception, parking and garden. The upper floors were used for the programmers´workstations, organized in open work areas with bench desks. Meeting rooms and toilets were placed besides the party wall. A large straight staircase links the three floors and allows natural light to flow from a skylight in the ceiling. Technical needs of the building and the critical rear windows orientation were solved by metallic walkways that contain air conditioning equipment and provide sun shelter.
Las necesidades técnicas del edificio y la crítica orientación del contrafrente fueron resueltas mediante pasarelas metálicas que contienen los equipos de aire acondicionado y sirven de parasol.
