In 2010 i developed a study for a client to approve with the BMW Brazil in a way to construct a dealership in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil.
This project was complex because we have to plan a few different activities in the same complex plus a high difficult landscape to settle it.
The direction was to work in several levels to make easy the access to the different functions and mitigate the cuts and fills off the ground.
On the lower part of it we have the main showroom. This is a Glass cube designed to maximize the exposition of the products. The nice details are the metal structure project inside of the glass curtain that support the cladding and the wood ceiling as well.
On the other side of the lower ground we designed another Glass showroom to expose used Bmw cars. On the addction of this two building we have a metal pergola that makes the transition and connect these blocks.
On the top of that, crowning these blocks, we have a closed building containing the repair center and the administration. To access that, you should do it on the upper level of the site.
I do like this project because it combines such different architectural program, a difficult landscape and a nice and balanced volumes.
Best.
