Gouderaakstraat - Rotterdam
This project features a compact yet modern commercial development combining functional garage boxes with flexible office units. The building is clad in clean, industrial-style metal sheeting, with a striking black and orange color scheme that gives it a bold, contemporary identity. The form is simple and efficient, emphasizing utility while maintaining a strong visual presence suitable for a small-scale business park or light industrial zone.
Project details
The concept focused on creating a multi-purpose structure that could serve small enterprises, startups, or tradespeople needing both work and storage space. The use of metal panels not only supports the industrial aesthetic but also keeps the construction cost-effective and durable. The orange highlights act as wayfinding elements and visual breaks, giving the building character without compromising its professional look.
This ArchViz project aimed to capture the sharp contrast between the materials and highlight the building’s modular rhythm. The lighting setup was designed to emphasize the clean lines of the façade and the reflective textures of the metal cladding. The project went smoothly from 3D modeling to final renders, with special attention given to realistic materials, shadows, and context elements to help potential clients or investors visualize the building in a real-world setting.
Overall, this was a successful and rewarding project that balanced design constraints with creative expression. It showcases how simple industrial materials, when paired with thoughtful color accents and proportions, can result in a compelling and marketable architectural solution.
