How should the exterior facade of the office building be designed to be more outstanding?

The design of the office building facade is not only consistent with the purpose of the building itself, but also a manifestation of culture. It must focus on highlighting the beauty and style of the project. To put it bluntly, the office building facade is the building itself. Face, what we are going to talk about today is the style, shape, and materials of office building facades.

Classification of overall structure

Variable planar type: usually large at the top and small at the bottom, such as pyramid type, setback type, stepped type, etc., for example: Pan American Building in San Francisco, I.M. Pei Hong Kong Bank of China Tower, etc.

Group type: often regarded as a "city within a city", it is large and spectacular in scale and solves complex architectural and urban problems in a group type. It is a super-large urban complex. Example: Shanghai Mall.

Free style: anti-traditional, irregular architectural combination, individual, free and lively.

Planar composition classification

Line-derived shapes: The combination of basic linear shapes can produce infinitely varied plane forms.

There are two basic line types: straight line and curve.

Shape-sound-shape: A configuration method that uses basic shapes as the basic elements to create new shapes. Basic types include: square, rectangle, regular triangle, rhombus, etc. Bending, cutting, staggered stacking, grouping, shearing, stretching, tension and compression, etc. can produce various new forms. And many new situations can also be produced by combining and choosing the facts.

Classification of facade materials

High-end office building facade grade: metal mesh plus glass curtain wall, bringing the enjoyment of an ecological office building, mesh metal curtain wall double-layer skin | Brother It is written to limit the wind in high-rise buildings, making it possible for high-rise buildings to open large areas. Stone is very popular in modern-style building facades.

Broken down by material, there are mainly two types: natural stone and artificial stone. Glass curtain wall is a beautiful and novel high-end building wall. However, when used in large areas, glass curtain wall easily causes a certain degree of light pollution. Nowadays, LOW-E energy-saving and environmentally friendly glass curtain wall is widely used.

The facade grade of mid-range office buildings: it will play an important role in the ecological and environmental protection trend in the future. The use of city walls and strips of silicon will not only increase the load-bearing capacity of the building complex, but because they are connected, they are easy to fall after being eroded by wind and rain, and are generally used in low-end properties. Paint can be applied to the main part above the bottom of an office building, but in China it is easy to use low-grade paint.

The above are some styles and compositions of office building exterior design. From the overall structure and exterior facade materials, the levels of high-end, mid-range and low-end are analyzed. High-end office buildings generally use very high-grade exterior materials. It's elegant, but the price will be more expensive.
