An existing building rebuilt and extended into the headquarters of one of Armenia's best-known technology companies.
Digitain asked for more than a refurbishment. The brief was to keep an existing building in service as the core of a new headquarters, add floor area above and beside it, and give the whole a single, confident identity on a busy Yerevan corner.
The structural work started with the existing frame: surveying what was there, establishing what it could still carry, and deciding where new structure had to take over. The extension is designed to work with the original building in Yerevan's seismic conditions rather than simply sit on top of it.
Architecturally, the curved glazed corner and banded façade tie old and new volumes into one composition. The building is complete and occupied.
