Adora Business Center 3 is a corporate building of an international pharmaceutical giant for the Southeast Europe region.It is located in the southern part of Sofia, in one of the best developed business locations in Sofia, right next to an intensive road junction with different directions of traffic.The building has four above ground floors and one underground level. Тhe different floors of the building have a different shape and direction of orientation, following the directions of the road arteries.Adora 3 contrasts from the surrounding buildings with its dynamic forms and materiality, but at the same time complements the silhouette and image of the location.The building is conceived as the focal point in the urban landscape, an important element without which the place would not be the same. An object that has such a strong scenographic presence so that it can evoke comments such as: “icing on the cake”, “pearl in the crown”, etc.In order to achieve this effect, in the design process the building was carefully examined from all possible directions of perception, playing out the possible observation scenarios in the search of the appropriate shapes and proportions.The application of this cinematic method of building the architectural image is possible thanks to the application of the latest technologies for virtual three-dimensional building modeling in the design process down to the smallest detail.Achieving this image also has its price – the great complexity and serious technical challenges in the implementation of the project: large cantilever and support spans, outward sloping facades, curved glazing, three-dimensional aileron surfaces, etc.The general dynamic concept enters the interior of the building as well. The lobby is oriented towards the most visible corner of the terrain and represents a high volume that is passing through two levels.The ground floor and the first floor are connected by a curved staircase spilling into an amphitheater space for presentations and events, overflowing into a catering area and cafeteria.Working areas, areas for meetings, collaboration and recreation areas are located on the upper floors.
