Conversion of the Building at 21 Tudor Arghezi Street
Conversion of a 1966 building in Bucharest's historic centre into office space, including structural strengthening, interior reconfiguration and a fully rebuilt façade.
Located in a historic area of Bucharest, the building was erected in 1966 as part of the city's transformation plan of those years, when the capital looked more towards Western models than to those of the Communist bloc. Several types of functional buildings date from this period of the 1960s and 1970s.
The works
The conversion project set out to recontextualise the building historically and reconnect it with its surroundings. The works included:
- structural strengthening;
- interior reconfiguration;
- complete reconstruction of the façade, in keeping with the building's proportions and the structural lines of the area;
- landscaping of the surroundings.
Result
With a built area of 6,500 sqm, the building now provides bright office space, delivered in 17 months.
