Piekary near Krakow, October 2018 – February 2021
Horizone Studio sometimes also acts as a consultant and contact architect.
For a period of 2.5 years, we have been advising and performing quality supervision on the Krakow investment of the Austrian company Schachermayer.
Our activities as part of the investor’s team on this investment are similar to Horizone Studio’s work about 5 years ago on the Rolls Royce Marine Service investment in Gdynia.
In Piekary, near Krakow, a Schachermayer office building with a warehouse section – the company’s headquarters in Poland – is under construction.
The investor is Schachermayer Polska – the Polish branch of the Austrian Schachermayer company
The author of the conceptual design of the building is Helmut Siegel Office from Linz
Horizone Studio, acting as part of the team on the investor’s side, supervised the design process, verified the project assumptions, and currently conducts quality supervision of the implementation, reporting directly to the investor.
Investor supervision on the investor’s side is performed by Bilfinger-Tebodin o. Krakow.
The author of the documentation of the construction project in the detailed design is APA Zalewski Bubak office.
Promerol S.A. is the contractor and substitute investor.
Horizone has been involved almost from the very beginning of the investor’s activities. First, together with the office of Helmut Siegel from Linz, we co-created design and material guidelines, consulted on the investment agreement in terms of design and functional guidelines prepared by the KKPW law firm, then we supervised the multi-discipline project under construction at APA Zalewski Bubak, and now we exercise so-called quality control during the implementation.
The building will meet the high international quality standards of Schachermayer. The building consists of two parts – an office and exhibition area with a large show room occupying the first floor, and a warehouse area. The facades of the office part are finished with corten sheet cladding and high-class glass partitions. The hall is finished with sandwich panels in the individual color of the company’s corporate identity. The roof is covered with a green roof with a photovoltaic installation.
