Kiefer Technic Showroom
Ernst Giselbrecht + Partner presents the Kiefer Technic Showroom,
an office building and exhibition space with dynamic façade that changes to
outdoor conditions, optimizing internal climate, while allowing users to personalize
their own space with user controls.
The shell construction of the façade consist of solid brick
walls, reinforced ceilings and floors, and steel encased concrete columns. The façade
consist of aluminum posts and transoms with protruding bridges for maintenance,
with an EIFS- Façade in white-plaster. The sun screen operates on electronic
shutters of preformatted aluminum panels.
The 112 metal tiles that line the exterior of the Kiefer
Technic Showroom in Bad Gleichenberg Austria are all movable, creating a
dynamic and changeable façade that will quickly change anyone’s opinion of
solar shading.
This façade also has a time control where the panels can change design every hour.
