The office buildings are usually established in city centers or at important communication junctions. However, the goal was to design Press Glass headquarters on a green plateau. Triangular plan and soft lines adds dynamics and ease to the entire structure. The design has a clear principle to locate offices along the external facade, while the relax and open space zones would be placed around the inner courtyard. Thanks to this, project takes full advantage of the natural surroundings and light.

Konior Studio is an architectural office founded by Tomasz Konior. Our designs put man in the first position in the context of time, place, nature and culture. The most important and valued aspect of architecture is its connection with the city – the way a dense urban tissue creates diverse places, as well as forging the atmosphere and identity of public spaces. A good continuation of tradition in combination with modern technologies and ecology allow for the creation of a coherent city. Over two decades of fruitful architectural work have brought a number of awarded projects, all of which have guaranteed Konior Studio a leading position in the design of private and public buildings and public spaces. We approach every design topic with passion, which is why buildings of various scales and functions are being create in our office, from houses and residential to hotels and office buildings and ending with master plans for future city districts.
