The international architectural design competition of the Pomeranian Science and Technology Park in Gdynia was won by AEC Krymow & Partners, an architectural office from Warsaw.
The current area of the Technology Park is more than 80 thousand sqm. Inside the ultra-modern building complex there are offices, laboratories, workshops, conference spaces, while on the ground floor there is space for dining, shopping and other commercial services. During the design process of the Science and Technology Park, the architects were inspired by polish modernist architecture of Gdynia of the 1920s and 1930s. The rounded parts of the facade are especially associated with the historic architecture of Gdynia.
Five blocks, accommodating offices, are merged through communication lines of stairwells and elevators, while the facades are made entirely of glass. The implemented double-skin facade system was custom developed to give the interior a high level of sound and energy-saving thermal insulation.
The interior design project of the Science and Technology Park is also a result of AEC Krymow & Partners’ work. The interiors are designed so there is no further need for the construction to be built over. The structural design itself creates the arrangement of inside. Concrete walls have no plaster and rooms have no suspended ceilings. The main materials used in the interior is aluminum, glass, concrete and steel. This raw and industrial arrangement was softened by the use of wood. The architecture of the Science and Technology Park is energy efficient as it uses heat exchangers and heat recovery systems, so neither heat nor energy are wasted.
