[dos54]

it's been 4 months... (winter update)

Time has fled since the last post, and even though none of our current projects has reached a conclusion, lots of things have happened during this span of time.

One of the most important in terms of presence of dos54 in the Spanish market is the affiliation to ASEFAVE [1] (Spanish window and façade manufacturers association) as a collaborator member, being the second consulting/engineering office joining the association, and the only one in Barcelona. With this step, dos54 is getting involved in the decision making progress when it comes to develop the façade ambit in Spain. As part of this new set of actions, dos54 has also sponsored the Máster de Arquitectura en Fachadas Ligeras [2], a master degree on façade design by Madrid Polytechnical University [3], that Maria (founder Maria) is currently taking part of.

On the project sides, new ones have come to our hands and the existing ones are getting closer to being finished. The site has been updated with new photos of the following new and ongoing projects:

ims, that is planned to be concluded in march/april

youtube space in rio de janeiro, a small project with pretty serious complexity in terms of geometry and logistics

p.e. residence, and the p.e. residence library, which are also coming to an end in the next few weeks

cuarzo reforma, with new pictures borrowed from the guys in skyscrapercity [3]

casino supermarket in Brazzaville, where Lluís, our Barcelona based engineer, had to go to take all the measurements for the shop drawings

tocumen and lyon airports: same work from our part, really different results (we're not very amused with the looks of the Panamanian airport)

kawneer headquarters in Montpellier, our newest biggest ongoing project

palais de justice de Paris, featuring new photos of the façade erection

fipoi, a project we were just involved in schematic design phase and that we just found out it has been already built (with our proposed solutions? who knows...)

Here you have a set of pics, so that you can check some of the new additions to the site without leaving this entry:

 Expect new updates (we hope we have something to update...) from our incursions in Colombia and Mexico!

summer recap

it has been a while since the last post, and lots of things happened since then. summer brought new projects, new opportunities, important developments in ongoing projects, and above all, brought the dos54 team to Brazil.

mid july was the date for the field trip to são paulo, for the whole team to visit the ongoing works dos54 is working on in the city. this trip saw the official farewell to adrià (our QS intern), that after almost a year with us, has decided to go a step forward and study architecture, but it also meant the official welcome to gianluca who, hopefully, will stay with us for a long time.

unfortunately, IMS façade was not advanced as we would have liked, and the site only worked as a cool background for the new team photo.

p.e. residence, however is walking  (more or less) much on schedule, and the skylight was pretty advanced for being worth to pay a visit.

a week is not much, though, and the time flew between feasting, driving and sunbathing.

in the professional side, these three months have taken dos54 to panama and argentina in the pursuit of new projects and opportunities, the façade works for blue towers galeria and isidora el bosque have been concluded, the works for the maison de l'histoire europeènne has been almost completed, and we managed to get some photos of the process of the façade erection for the project cuarzo reforma, one of the very firsts projects we developed under the dos54 name.  

dos54 was also awarded during these months with four different projects with different scopes.

in cooperation with catalan aluminium supplier tecalum [1], dos54 had the chance to work in africa, with two projects in algeria providing, mostly, calculations, and another one in congo, where the whole package was offered, including taking measurements on site, in brazzaville.

along with barcelona based architecture office alotark [2], dos54 is developing the façade for the new hq of french aluminium spplier kawneer [3]. the project features different façade types, including double skin, polycarbonate claddigns, and cable truss system.

expect new updates on these new things in the following entries.
