S.A.W.

Qormi, Malta

A 10,000sq.m extension to an existing furniture factory and offices, S.A.W. is built out of precast concrete elements, which wrap the entire site perimeter, with an elegant, ribbed, curtain-like veil, while enclosing the naturally lit manufacturing spaces within.

The roof-top offices are built around light shafts and terraces, allowing natural light and landscaping to pour in to the working areas. The meeting rooms and client areas are naturally lit by warm chiaroscuro tones.
