VIBORG TOWN HALL


VIBORG, DENMARK, HENNING LARSEN ARCHITECTS DESIGNED
THE VIBORG TOWN HALL FOR THE MUNICIPALITY OF VIBORG. IT HAS A GROSS
FLOOR AREA OF 19, 400 SQM. AND WAS CONSTRUCTED FROM 2009 TO 2011.
LOCATED AT

WITH ITS DISTINCTIVE FACETED SHAPE VIBORG TOWN HALL BECOMES A SYMBOL OF
THE NEW LARGE MUNICIPAL COMMUNITY THAT OPENS IN THE WAKE OF THE
MUNICIPAL MERGER.

THE NEW TOWN HALL IS SITUATED IN A PREVIOUS MILITARY AREA ON THE OUTSKIRTS
OF VIBORG. SHAPED AS A WHITE SCULPTURE FLOATING ABOVE A DARK BASE, THE
BUILDING OPENS UP TO THE TOWN HALL SQUARE AND THE NEW GREEN PARK.

EMPLOYEES AND VISITORS ARE INVITED INTO A BUILDING CHARACTERISED BY


BRIGHTNESS, OPENNESS AND FLEXIBILITY. THE GREEN ROOF RUNNING FROM THE
BUILDING BASE BEAUTIFULLY INTERACTS WITH THE LANDSCAPE AND THE GREEN
PARKING ROOFS SURROUNDING THE FRONT SQUARE.

IN THE LARGE ATRIUM RISING UP SIX FLOORS FROM FLOOR TO CEILING, A BROAD
STAIRCASE CONSTITUTES A SCULPTURAL, UNITING ELEMENT.
THE EMPLOYEE CAFETERIA AND KITCHEN ARE PLACED ON THE TOP FLOOR OF THE
BUILDING OFFERING A NICE VIEW AND DIRECT ACCESS TO A LARGE ROOF TERRACE.

THE INTERPLAY BETWEEN HOUSE AND PARK CREATES A NEW PLACE IN THE TOWN
WHERE THE LARGE INNER ATRIUM IS THE HEART THAT JOINS THE TOWN HALLS
PROFESSIONAL COMMUNITY WITH THE COMMUNITY OF THE CITIZENS. THE FACADE
STRUCTURE PROVIDES THE BUILDING WITH A DISTINCTIVE EXPRESSION AND AT
THE SAME TIME OFFERS PROTECTION FROM THE SUN.

THOROUGHLY SUSTAINABLE AND DEVELOPED IN LOW ENERGY CLASS 1, THE 19,400


M2 BUILDING WILL BE A LANDMARK IN THE AREA, A MODERN WORKPLACE AND A
NEW PLACE OF VALUE TO BOTH CITIZENS AND EMPLOYEES.

SUSTAINABILITY IS ONE OF THE FACTORS THAT HENNING LARSEN ARCHITECTS


EMPHASIZED ON THIS PROJECT. THE ENERGY CONSUMPTION OF VIBORG TOWN HALL
WILL MEET THE REQUIREMENTS FOR LOW-ENERGY CLASS 1 ACCORDING TO DANISH
BUILDING REGULATIONS (MAX (50 +1100 / A) KWH/M2A (A = THE HEATED FLOOR
AREA).
THIS IS ACHIEVED BY MEANS OF SEVERAL SUSTAINABLE INITIATIVES, INCLUDING:
- A COMPACT BUILDING GEOMETRY AND TREBLE GLAZING
- NATURAL VENTILATION (HYBRID VENTILATION) - ENSURING AN ENERGY-EFFICIENT
VENTILATION OF THE BUILDING.
- MECHANICAL VENTILATION IN PART OF THE BUILDING - REQUIRING EFFICIENT HEAT
RECOVERY
- ABSORPTION HEAT PUMPS POWERED BY DISTRICT HEATING
- PASSIVE AND ACTIVE COOLING OF THE BUILDING STOCK (CONCRETE FLOOR, OPEN
SUSPENDED CEILINGS)
- DAYLIGHT - THE BUILDING HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO BENEFIT THE MOST FROM THE
DAYLIGHT
- EXTERNAL SOLAR PROTECTION AND SOLAR CELLS ON THE ROOFED PARKING SPACE

- MOVEMENT SENSORS AND USE OF ENERGY-EFFICIENT LIGHT SOURCES TO REDUCE


ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION

BUENOS AIRES CIUDAD CASA DE GOBIERNO

A NEW CITY HALL LOCATED AT BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA WAS DESIGNED BY


FOSTER + PARTNERS ON 2014. THE SUSTAINABLE NEW CITY HALL FOR THE MAYOR

AND 1,500 STAFF AND THE PRACTICES FIRST CIVIC PROJECT IN ARGENTINA SPANS
AN ENTIRE CITY BLOCK IN PARQUE PATRICIOS.

THE ARCHITECTURE ECHOES THE BUILDINGS PARK-SIDE SETTING, WITH


LANDSCAPED COURTYARDS AND SHADED WALKWAYS, AND USES MATERIALS THAT
DRAW ON THE SITES INDUSTRIAL PAST TO REINFORCE THE UNIQUE CHARACTER OF
THE AREA.

ENTRANCE IS VIA A SOARING


FOUR-STOREY-HIGH ATRIUM. FULLHEIGHT GLAZING FILLS THE SPACE
WITH
NATURAL
LIGHT
AND
CREATES A VISUAL CONNECTION
WITH THE ADJACENT PARK, AND
FOUR TIERS OF OFFICE LEVELS
STEP
BACK
TO
CREATE
A
SEQUENCE OF STEPPED INTERNAL
TERRACES.
AL

L FLOORS ARE CONNECTED BY


TOP-LIT CIRCULATION ROUTES AND
PUNCTUATED BY TWO LARGE
LANDSCAPED
PATIOS.
THE
ACTIVITY
SPACES
ARE
OPEN,
NATURALLY
LIT
AND
VISIBLE,
ENSURING GOOD COMMUNICATION
BETWEEN
DEPARTMENTS
AND
PROMOTING
A
SENSE
OF
COMMUNITY

EXTERNALLY, THE BUILDING IS CHARACTERISED BY ITS FLOWING ROOF CANOPY,


WHICH IS SUPPORTED BY PILLARS AND EXTENDS IN A DEEP OVERHANG TO SHADE
THE ENTRANCE PLAZA AND FACADES.
LORD FOSTER SAID:SUSTAINABILITY RELATES VERY STRONGLY TO LOCAL
RESOURCES AND CLIMATE, AND BUENOS AIRESCIUDAD CASA DE GOBIERNO IS A
GREAT DEMONSTRATION OF HOW ARCHITECTURE CAN WORK WITH NATURE VIA
PASSIVE ENVIRONMENTAL MEANS TO NATURALLY REDUCE ENERGY USE. THE ROOF
EXTENDS LIKE A CANOPY TO PROVIDE SHADE, ITS FLOWING CONCRETE STRUCTURE
IS BOTH SYMBOLIC AS A CIVIC BUILDING AND FUNCTIONAL IN REGULATING

TEMPERATURES. SHADING LOUVRES ON THE EAST AND WEST PROTECT THE


INTERIOR FROM DIRECT GLARE, WHILE COURTYARDS ALLOW SUNLIGHT INTO THE
HEART OF THE BUILDING IN THIS WAY, ITS DESIGN IS VERY MUCH A RESPONSE TO
PLACE AND CLIMATE. THE PROJECT HAS PLAYED A VITAL ROLE IN REGENERATING
THIS FORMER INDUSTRIAL QUARTER OF THE CITY.

COTABATO CITY HALL

THE NEW COTABATO CITY HALL SITS ON A 9 HECTARE LOT AND IS LOCATED AT
MALAGAPAS, BARANGAY ROSARY HEIGHTS 10. THE ARCHITECTURE IS A HYBRID OF
MORO ARCHITECTURE WITH THEIR TRADEMARK OKIR AND MODERN NEO-CLASSICAL
STYLE. THE MOST PROMINENT PART OF THE FACADE IS THE ROW OF POINTED
ARCHES, ISLAMIC IN STYLE AND REFLECTIVE OF THE CULTURE OF THE PLACE. AS AN
ACCENT OF NEO CLASSICAL STYLE, AT THE MIDDLE, AFTER THE LONG ROW OF
POINTED ARCHES, THERE ARE IONIC COLUMNS AND PEDIMENT. THE ROOF IS A NOD
TO THE OLD CITY HALL, WHICH IS A NICE TOUCH.

THE NEW CITY HALL IS NOW AT MALAGPAS WHICH THEY NOW CALLED THE PEOPLES
PALACE, APTLY NAMED SINCE THIS NEW SEAT OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT WAS MADE
AND FUNDED WITH THE PEOPLES MONEY. IT MAY LOOK LIKE A STRAIGHT LINE
STRUCTURE BUT VIEWED ON THE SIDE ANGLE, THE WINGS LOOK LIKE LONG
OUTSTRETCHED ARMS READY TO EMBRACE.

SARIAYA MUNICIPAL HALL

PHILIPPINE ART DECO AT ITS FIN

EST. SARIAYA, QUEZON WAS KNOWN FOR ITS ART DECO STYLED BUILDINGS, THE
REASON WHY IT IS SAID TO BE THE ART DECO CAPITAL OF THE PHILIPPINES. ONE OF
THE KNOWN BUILDINGS IN SARIAYA WAS ITS MUNICIPIO, BUILT IN 1931 IN ART DECO
STYLE BY AR. JUAN ARELLANO.

SARIAYA MUNICIPAL HALL HAS IMPOSING FEATURE OF STEPPED FAADE, WITH A

FRAMED ENTRY AND STATUARY AS ACCENTS, THE VOLUMES OF THE SIDES ARE ALSO
WELL DESIGNED WITH INTERESTING FEATURES LIKE THE INDENTED DECORATIVE
BAND ON TOP.

BACOLOD CITY GOVERNMENT CENTER

THE NEW BACOLOD CITY GOVERNMENT CENTER WAS LOCATED AT THE


CIRCUMFERENTIAL ROAD WILL SERVE AS A TRADE MARK AND SPOT OF
ACCOMPLISHMENT AND PROGRESS IN THE CITY. LOCATED AT BURGOS STREET
(CIRCUMFERENTIAL ROAD, BURGOS STREET), 6100 BACOLOD CITY, NEGROS
OCCIDENTAL. THE NEW GOVERNMENT CENTER HAS REPLACED THE BACOLOD CITY
HALL,
THE

GOVERNMENT CENTER IS MISTAKENLY CALLED THE NEW CITY HALL.

IT IS SAID TO BE AS UNDOUBTEDLY NEOCLASSICAL IN FORM. THIS BUILDING MAKES A


GRAND GESTURE WITH ITS IMPOSING FAADE SET OFF AN EXPANSIVE PLAZA WITH A
SUBSTANTIAL WATER FEATURE. IT IS SAID TO BE AS A GOOD INTERPRETATION OF
NEOCLASSICAL ARCHITECTURE AS DESIGNED AND CONSTRUCTED TODAY. HOWEVER,
SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT IT ADHERES MUCH TO THE DESIGN OF THE NEGROS
OCCIENTAL PROVINCIAL CAPITOL, A MASTERPIECE OF NEOCLASSICAL ARCHITECTURE
BY JUAN ARELLANO, TO THE POINT OF MIMICRY.
