DSN Headquarters is a sustainable workspace that combines an energy-efficient building form with a holistic comfortable work environment. The 4-storey building features a double skin environmental veil on the west and east to protect the building from equatorial sun and heat, while the curvilinear shape defines a cool open courtyard overlooking water.
The architecture appears soft and floats lightly above gardens, a poetic presence reflecting DSN as a leading agro-industry that cares for the environment. Double-glazed low-emission glass facades on the north and south reflect the garden, while perforated aluminium, cocoon-like veils on the west and east facades reduce direct sunlight and glare.
