Robert o projekcie

The project of MM Petro premises, company operating on fuel market, is extension of an existing object, a former State Farm building.

Hexagonal shape of benzene chemical formula, which is an ecological ingredient of fuel, became inspiration for the building’s shape. Looking at building’s section, with a bit of imagination, we can see a part of this hexagon. The rest is just “hidden” beneath the ground. The project presumes addition of a few hexagonal elements to the existing building in ascending sequence.As a result, we get an effect of extraction of the structure “hidden” under ground. The new part is connected to the old one, creating coherent entirety.

The Investor’s wish was good exposure of the building, as well as its surrounding. It initiated an idea of using one colour on the floor inside the building, as well as in the entrance and parking area, to get an impression of liquid oozing out of a huge pipe.

The front elevation is has double function: first – informative, second – separating the inside from the outside. This specific filter brought to our mind a sieve – perforated surface with selective permeability.

In this particular case shape of perforation could be company’s logo. The letterings would be transparent on solid background.
