This headquarters building in Porto was designed with Vodafone’s slogan ‘Vodafone Life, Life in Motion’, resulting a dynamic building with irregular body, out of balance, with many faces in motion. The formalization of this concept is based on the concrete, which through its plasticity, allows to create irregular and free-form shapes, working both as a structural solution and exterior appearance. The technical complexity of the building leads to a periphery structural solution, a shell of concrete, like an egg, reducing internal support to the two stairwells and three central pillars, allowing great versatility in its interior space use.
