The G02 building consists of two parts: a two-storey printing shop, drapery, ink kitchen and drying room built at the end of the 19th century, and an engraving and rolling mill added in the early 20th century. The expansion of the building is reflected in the façade: the lower part has arched vaulted windows, the upper part has arched vaults only on the ground floor, with modernist rectangular large-format windows above. The local development plan allows for the superstructure of the building. This provided the potential to create a diverse range of flats: from tall loft flats with mezzanine floors directly adjacent to the existing walls, to standard height flats located in the new superstructure. The project was developed in close collaboration with the Provincial Office for Historic Preservation. A number of analytical studies were produced to help us place the new function in the old walls in the best possible way.

The office buildings of the Fuzja complex are being built on the site of the historic Scheibler-Grohman industrial building complex in Łódź. As a piece of history commemorating the place and function, the historic wall on the northern side has been preserved and incorporated into the body of the northern office building.
The distinctive feature of the buildings are the designed elevations – they have been designed with the use of common facade systems with blinds used in an unconventional way. The blinds, which are usually installed horizontally and function as a shield for ventilation of the technical areas of the buildings, have been used as façade cladding in the case of the designed office buildings. By installing the blinds vertically, a unique rhythm of façade elements was obtained by varying the directions in which they are arranged to the right or left, which produces a different visual effect depending on the time of day and the amount of sunlight.

The City Gate building is a link between the old city and the so-called New Centre of Łódź. It encompasses part of the inner city connecting business, transport and culture. The project consists of two buildings (A and B). The premise opens up to Łódź and its inhabitants. This has been emphasised in the design by a discreet separation of the blocks, creating a symbolic gateway to the new city. The glass used in the space between the buildings creates a mirror effect by reflecting the surroundings. This bonds the volumes even more strongly to the fabric of the city.

The façades, covered with a mosaic of corten and black sheet panels, give the volumes a spatial dimension, creating impressions that change with the point of view. The dance of these large volumes becomes dynamic from the perspective of those travelling along one of the thoroughfares that run in the vicinity of the buildings.

In addition to the industrial materials used on the façade, the design also makes use of the brick used on the floors. The materials allude to the industrial character of the city. The architecture of the City Gate is inspired by the brick aesthetic that dominates Łódź’s historic buildings, but uses a contemporary language. Rust-coloured corten combines old conditions and modern needs.

Proud of its traditions, Łódź is today simultaneously associated as a city of festivals, fashion and design weeks attracting young, creative people. The aesthetics of the City Gate reflect this, which is why the interiors of all the lift halls are covered with cartoon graphics alluding to the 19th-century traditions of industrial tycoons important to the city’s history.

The City Gate opens up not only formally, but also functionally. Service and catering establishments have been designed on the ground floor. The buffer between the buildings is filled with recreational spaces arranged as a green enclave of the New Centre of Łódź.

Part of the ground floor provides a coworking area for employees and their visitors. The canopy of the exit ramp to the garage is designed as an arrangement of wooden bleachers where office workers can take a break. On summer evenings, this space can serve as an auditorium for an open-air cinema, drawing on the rich traditions of the Łódź Film School.

Łódź, like Silesia, is an industrial substance characterised by moderation, universality, typification and pragmatism. Looking for a simple yet functional idea for the façade of the building that was to flank the new Łódź station square, we reached for a repetitive module of cable trays. We decided that the functional use of these elements in the design of a simple office building would work perfectly in Łódź, a city that is full of examples of solid, functional and pragmatic architecture. The openwork form of the perforated troughs made it possible to introduce a play with light, while at the same time providing an opportunity to optimise the cost of the building façade itself.

We used a material – an object that had not been used in such a context before. It turned out that the lightweight yet rigid form of the factory-galvanised elements was perfect for this type of application. The perforated structure and the uneven rhythms of the modules will reflect light once and seep through again, constantly changing the appearance of the building.

The use of brass-coloured trays made it possible to ‘dress’ the simple block in a customised package, giving it a completely new, noble expression.

The walls on the courtyard side, in turn, were finished with standing seam sheet metal in a brass shade that was reminiscent of the external façade.

The courtyard itself, on the other hand, was to be user-friendly for the building’s users and open to the people of Łódź. We have introduced greenery into it, seats on the stands, electrical sockets in them, but also a summer cinema screen. All this means that by realising the Nowa Fabryczna building we have given the city’s residents an attractive space and a new quality.
