The Torre Méndez Álvaro, a new office building located in one of the main business areas in the center of Madrid, hopes to become a benchmark for sustainability and architectural efficiency thanks to BIM . The office tower located on 3 Retama Street takes the name of the neighborhood and becomes the Méndez Álvaro Tower, a building where architecture and nature merge to give way to a benchmark property in sustainability and energy efficiency. An objective that the architecture and interior design studio GCA Architects aims to achieve thanks to the use of the BIM (Building Information Modeling) methodology.
Its team of architects has focused on introducing “a new architectural reference for the expanding horizon of this area of the city” with an emphasis on “respecting the rhythm and urban landscape.” In order to maintain synchronization with the other towers in the area, "metal ribs and curved glass will be used in the corners of the facades", in addition, " three Cape Verde Email List materials have been chosen: metal, wood and glass , seeking a chromatic and sensitive that reinforces the sobriety and contemporaneity of the entire design”, summary. Dynamism and originality will be achieved thanks to the use of a system of double-height terraces , which rotate as the levels increase and connect the offices with outdoor spaces with abundant vegetation, characteristic of a biophilic design.
With these advances, GCA Architects aims to achieve the highest score in the Well Core and Shell, Breeam Excellent, Zero Carbon and Leed Platinum certifications . Collaborative work The BIM methodology has played, once again, a vital role in the renovation of the Retama 3 building. And, according to Borja Sánchez Ortega, Project Director and Director of the International BIM Manager Master (+VR) of the specialized company Espacio BIM one of the great advantages is that "it has made it possible to centralize all the information on the Méndez Álvaro Tower (geometric, documentary, etc.
