Facade intervention for the XVIII Architecture Biennale 2012 of the eastern front elevation of the Estación Mapocho Cultural Center in Santiago de Chile.

This architectural intervention hosts the reception program and establishes a limit between the exterior plaza and the general mounting of the exhibit, generating a threshold and limiting three entrances to just one. These volumes were cladded  with Trespa® Meteon® panels, creating a variation of color that gives a third dimension to the intervention.

More innovative, natural looking façades add new dimensions to architectural design.

‘Think Trespa’ is Trespa’s new worldwide magazine on excellence and meaningful, ventilated façades. The magazine aims to help architects, installers, contractors and clients to shape the world for the future.

The focus of the magazine is on exterior design: façade systems, façade parts and balconies. For both new buildings and renovation. Within ’Think Trespa’ 4 sections are mixed in a harmonious and unconventional way: reference projects, inspirations, technical information, product information.

In today’s architecture, longevity is a key consideration. Any building that remains looking good will continue to command attention. In addition to aesthetic considerations, there are cost implications too: a reduced need for maintenance brings additional savings in labour costs and cleaning materials.
