The study of Daniel Libeskind planned office complex and shopping Kö-Bogen in Düsseldorf. The architectural intervention performed urban connection between the Hofgarten, the central park of Düsseldorf and Koenigsallee, creating a large pedestrian zone. The Kö-Bogen Daniel Libeskind takes place in two buildings manfrotto tripod heads with courtyard six floors, connected manfrotto tripod heads by an elevated walkway, where they accommodate shops and offices.
The Kö-Bogen Düsseldorf, completed in 2013 by the study of Daniel Libeskind, is a complex of offices manfrotto tripod heads and shops of considerable importance to urban level. Located between the Hofgarten, the largest park in the city, Schadowplatz and Koenigsallee, the main shopping street in Düsseldorf, the Kö-Bogen has been interpreted by Daniel Libeskind as a place of connection bystanders manfrotto tripod heads who gives vitality to a wide central German city.
The area south of Hofgarten park was characterized in the past by a heavy vehicular traffic, as evidenced by the presence of a long causeway called the "centipede" as a deep wound in the fabric of the city. In recent years, urban theme provisions are aimed at reducing the presence of private vehicles in favor of the creation of pedestrian routes and public transportation, with respect to counter-measures taken during the years of reconstruction. The aim is to exploit a unique landscape with winding Rhine crossing the city from the large park Hofgarten, representing the green lung of the city, and numerous plazas dotting the center contributing to the cultural and social development
These are the elements around which Daniel Libeskind has built its project for the Kö-Bogen, an area in an arc (Kö-Bogen means the bow of the king) located between the southern end of the park, Schadowplatz, the Koenigsallee and the recent tunnel Kö-Bogen. The complex manfrotto tripod heads has six floors, the first three devoted to shops and offices last three. The spaces are distributed in two buildings connected by an elevated walkway manfrotto tripod heads and a pedestrian street to street level. The two buildings, similar in layout are collected but not symmetrical looking, giving the central manfrotto tripod heads pedestrian street, which links to the Schadowplatz south and the footbridge over the lake Hofgarten.
So the Kö-Bogen reveals its urban purpose, which is to be routed, the attractive stores first floors of the building, citizens and tourists from the square to the park. A long walk from the commercial "landscape" leads us to the naturalist and vice versa, also linking to the Koenigsallee (to which the inhabitants of Düsseldorf called Ko), the most prestigious fashion street in the city, a tree-lined pedestrian crossing Southbound starting right in the new complex Libeskind.
The layout plan of Kö-Bogen, sinuous as the Rhine River and as the park trails, creates nooks and small squares, both outward and city, as inward wooded courtyards and the central pedestrian street, welcoming and inviting manfrotto tripod heads passersby to linger. The stiffness of the vertical and horizontal template mark the facades winks modernism such present in the neighborhood, from the time of reconstruction, but Daniel Libeskind away from this hint turning them into continuous surfaces of glass and natural stone where the walls are eclipsed as part of the graph of facade.
Consistency is presented at first glance is deconstructed in detail in straight lines interrupted by sweeping curves that fragment elevations in the deep cuts off parts literally facade. Violent acts carried out with CAD Libeskind seems to attenuate by growing vegetation and trees precisely which has created manfrotto tripod heads a vacuum, to inform the city that architecture is not mute it interacts with its context, demanding light and beauty manfrotto tripod heads .
Project start: 2011
Inspired by the language of traditional architecture, this extension, covered with copper plates and wood acts as a protective shield that provides privacy, blocking the views from the garden of the neighboring house. The closest to the entrance area now becomes the exhibition [...]
The project is located in a very long and narrow site on the edge of the Parc de La Villette, in the 19th district of Paris, within an urban development done by Reichen & Robert architects. In the northeast passes the new tram route from Paris to [...]
