The new PWC building marks the beginning of the
Barcode development, and will be the most visible building
in Barcode from downtown and the west.
It initiates the Barcode development, and will be the ‘face’
of Barcode towards downtown and the west.
With direct access to the Central Station, the building will
be important both as a signal building and connector.
The architectural vision for the project is one of lightness,
openness and technological sophistication within the
framework of a simple form. One’s perception of the
building will vary depending on distance and time of day
and year. The large glazed openings optimise vision, at
the same time ensuring good lighting conditions and a
comfortable indoor climate all year around.
