COMBINING SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY
The 5-story building has altogether 5,800 m2 of office spaces. It has been designed by a local architect company Arhitektuuribüroo PLUSS OÜ. Hepsor’s Development Project Manager Tarmo Tammemäe led the planning work of the ecological functionalities. The actual construction project was carried out by Mitt&Perlebach OÜ, and led by Construction Director Martin Varvas.
The wood façade of the building stems from green thinking. The windows are behind wooden covers and ribs which protect the rooms from the heating effect of sunbeams. Energy efficient ground heating keeps the building warm during winter and cools it in the summertime. The solar panels on the roof help keeping the energy expenses low.
