Foldes Architects collaborated with glass sculptor Andras Bojti to compose the engaging illusion effects in the entryway hall. “The notion derived from the definition of lens, the implies of vision, and also we took inspiration from the higher-technology of the lens industry, therefore clean, intelligent, integrated options as effectively as playful reflections, gloss surfaces and transparency played fantastic importance in the course of the design and style.” says Laszlo Foldes, chief designer at Foldes Architects. “This notion is supported by the resin flooring, the glass bridges, the opened-up volume and the tremendous flow of light streaming by means of the glass façade and the glass roof.”

“The process was to generate an iconic but functional centre of innovation which mainly serves as the showcase for the higher-tech, revolutionary production strategies utilised in the manufacturing of the most current generation, higher-top quality make contact with lens items of Sauflon. 700 men and women in 4 shifts operate every day at the factory which shares the space with the centre of innovation.”

“To the façade a massive glass surface is used to maximize the amount of light flowing in. Following entering, the 10 meter higher volume remains open and a 24 meter-lengthy passage welcomes guests with a sloped glass surface at the finish which tricks the vision. On the proper hand side the core functions are positioned: initial a lounge with a 24m2 glass wall presenting the visual ID of the business, then a cloakroom hidden by ‘floating’ glass doors and lastly the rebel pink glass covered cafe like kitchen and the mechanical space behind.”

“Above, a wooden box is cantilevered, a house within the residence, which serves as an auditorium with 32 seats and an integrated interpreter-cabin for conferences. The box can be entered from the upstairs guest region, through two green glass bridges. The next bridge gives access to the fitting area exactly where clinical coaching is delivered and the newest lenses can be seasoned.”

“A 12 seat meeting area can be reached via the identical bridge. On the ground floor a white door opens up the secret of the Sauflon Centre of Innovation – guests can enter the production area right here which provides a special chance to acquire an insight into the technologies utilized by one of the most pioneering businesses in optics. An iconic text welcomes their arrival: ‘Innovation is at the heart of every thing we do.’”
