Agora Headquarters

Agora's headquarters is a modern, though warm and friendly building, thanks to the use of natural materials (oak and cedar) and external and internal gardens. The entire southern elevation is glazed. The cedar-framed windows reach from floor to ceiling which ensures plenty of natural light. To deflect excessive sunlight, there are vertical cedar brise-soleils on the glazed elevation and a whole system of mesh walkways made of galvanized steel. At the first floor the eye is drawn to a colonnade of concrete pillars and three rectangular patios. The lobby is an open space and serves multiple functions. The part nearest to Czerska Street is open to the public. It provides access to the advertising office and a little café for customers and guests (text from project's website).
