TSUM STORE, KIEV, UKRAINE BENOY


TSUM, the iconic department store in the heart of Kiev, has been reimagined internally and externally by Benoy, acting as architect and interior designer as well as “visualiser and brand applicator.” As one of the most distinguished buildings in central Kiev, TSUM has a rich heritage, originally designed by Soviet architect Alexey Shchusev in 1939. It was damaged during WWII, but rebuilt and extended in 1956 to become a leading retail destination in the city. Benoy preserved the building’s characteristics, while modernising it “for the 21st century customer,” said the architects. Senior associate director Jason Clark commented that while restoring the existing facades they “introduced a free-form void at the centre of the store offering a dramatic focal point.” Ref: 28459


WATERGARDEN, ISTANBUL GORKEM VOLKAN DESIGN STUDIO


The project is distinguished from stereotypical shopping malls, said the architects, thanks to its “innovative concept of a recreational centre focusing only on gastronomy and entertainment.” Located in the Atasehir district of the city, it has a balanced spatial organisation in open, semi-open and closed spaces. There are various related units, spread over a 165,000 m2


site and designed for a


variety of activities. The ‘performance pool’ covering a 5000 m2


area is aimed to be the


project’s visual and functional centre. Different areas around the pool are designed to have different atmospheres related to their user profile. The adjoining 15,000 m2


City Park designed by


DS architects is an important part of the project. Ref: 15569


5 KING, BRISBANE SHOWGROUNDS, NEW SOUTH WALES BATES SMART


5 King is a high performance commercial building which is thought to be the tallest engineered timber building yet seen in Australia. Construction is due to begin in mid 2017 and completion is due at the end of 2018 on what will be the future home of global engineering firm Aurecon. The 52 metre-high tower in the Brisbane Showgrounds development will also hold the title for the largest gross floor area of an engineered office building worldwide, claim the architects. The construction combines CLT and glulam timber to offer “the structural strength of concrete and steel with a low carbon footprint.” Bates Smart director Philip Vivian commented: “We see timber buildings as the next generation of workplace for a creative class looking for rich environments that enhance wellbeing and productivity.” The timber construction recalls the local vernacular, and the building’s ‘verandah’ offers “an edge condition that maximises connection with the environment,” said the architects. A substantial 54 metre ground floor colonnade lined with cafes and restaurants provides a welcoming entry to the building. The side-core design offers generous 1,588 m2


net leasable area (NLA) floor plates, with a total of 14,921


NLA over 10 floors. There is a glass facade on the main south elevation and sunshades on the other facades. Inside, exposed timber structure and services contribute to a contemporary studio environment that balances wellbeing with creative collaboration space. Floorplates integrate a 6 metre x 8 metre grid of glulam columns and exposed ceilings with visual grade CLT cladding to the core. Ref: 13268
