#Synergy salon lake charles windows#
All windows consist of a double layer system: a larger window on the inside, and a smaller window set into an openable panel on the outside.ĭuring winter, the outer panels can be closed, significantly increasing the insulation of the building and thus improving its energy use, while maintaining natural light. The façade of the Synergy building is designed to respond to different conditions of the Finnish climate. The volumes are oriented in a such a way as to maximise solar gains, with each volume performing a different role in the energy flow of the building. The proposal for the Synergy Building offers innovative technology solutions to reduce the demand for energy, to minimize the carbon footprint of the development, and to enhance the overall efficiency of the building’s operations. They also create maximum transparency and views, with the idea that a good view can have the single biggest effect on the quality of a working environment. The resulting diverse variety of volumes help to define functions, while remaining connected for collaboration and social interaction. A wide variety of floor plans were explored with the client so as to find the most suitable, high-quality and efficient option.

Instead of just providing a narrow green park edge on the west side of the building, MVRDV propose to immerse the Synergy building in a natural environment that offers pleasant views in all directions.
The mix of smaller and bigger volumes both bridges this gap and fits well with the organisation of the Synergy building where several centres are connected to form the SYKE Institute. It is designed as a sort of campus, or family of buildings, bridging the larger scale of the monumental university buildings and the more intimate scale of the housing. All windows consist of a double layer system: a larger.
