“Asserting abject humility or the pretensions of power — sometimes concurrently — black, freighted with messages, is a brilliant communicator of values.” – Phaidon
ADS understands the importance of creating a statement, a façade that catches the eye. As per client’s requirement ADS designed black façade that is bold and definitely creates a statement.
Black represents prestige, honor and fragility while in façade the black concrete symbolizes stability and simplicity of the building. The dark façade creates value for other materials and lets them shine.
The horizontal framing of glass settled inclined creates movement and compliments dusty brown vertical rafters and the entrance wall. The vertical and horizontal transitions break the monotony of the dark façade while the reflection on the glass surface creates dialogue with surroundings.
