MJZ with \u0141oskiewicz Studio<\/a>\u2018s design begins with an analysis of the existing structure, sunlight, and opportunities to recover materials from the original facade. These elements are repurposed within the new interiors, while exposed concrete slabs reveal the building\u2019s original construction and reduce the environmental cost of demolition. A new glass facade framed in timber is set deeper within the envelope, creating natural shading and allowing the slabs to extend as terraces. These terraces form part of an ecological system inspired by the Vistula River, positioning the building as a responsive, living environment.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
Water circulation is integrated throughout the building to regulate internal climate. Horizontal channels guide water through planted zones, where tall grasses filter and cool it naturally. This hydro botanical system supports greywater reuse while shaping the spatial experience of the building. Vegetation also acts as passive shading, with deeper planting areas providing protection from direct sunlight. Together, water and plant systems create a layered environmental strategy that enhances both performance and comfort.<\/p>\n

The roof is designed as a hydro botanical landscape combining water reservoirs, greenery, and shared spaces. A large basin connects to the building\u2019s water systems, supporting passive cooling while creating an accessible environment for users. Mechanical systems are relocated below ground to free the roof for public use. An additional floor is introduced using a CLT timber waffle slab structure. Exposed timber columns allow for an open, flexible interior that can accommodate a range of functions, from workspaces to events and recreation.<\/p>\n

At ground level, coworking spaces and a restaurant activate the building and strengthen its connection to the city. Interior materials reference the sandy riverbanks of the Vistula, while graphic elements draw on local vegetation and Warsaw\u2019s mermaid symbol, linking the project to its cultural context and the identity of the client. Supported by detailed cost analysis and sustainability expertise, the project aligns with climate neutrality goals and ESG benchmarks. ReVistula proposes a new model for transforming existing buildings into environmentally responsible workplaces that engage both their users and their surroundings.<\/p>\n
