The Kontrapunkt V-Project Investment Team is working on a design of the
new seat for the CracowTechnologyPark. The office and
technology building will be erected on the perimeter of the Cracow Special Economic
Zone, in the area of the Gronostajowa, Dobrzyński and Skotnicka Streets.
CracowTechnologyPark constitutes a
partnership that administers the zone of the surface of 528,84 ha. Within its shareholders,
among others, there is: the State Treasury, MałopolskieProvince or Cracow-based
universities (AGH University of Science, the JagiellonianUniversity, and the Cracow
University of Technology).
The aim of the CracowTechnologyPark is to support
enterprise (as well as university enterprise – Technological Incubator
project), promote innovation and the use of modern technologies.
The design of the new CTP seat is being elaborate in the Kontrapunkt
V-Project Investment Team under the supervision of Katarzyna Florek. The
building will host the InnovationCenter, Knowledge
Repository, TrainingCenter and AuxiliaryCenter supporting the
works of Research and DevelopmentCenter along with
computer laboratories. Both, employees and the guests of the new Center will be
able to make use conference rooms, offices, library and a restaurant. Following
the investor’s order, inside the building, special exhibition space will be
also provided. The total surface of the site will amount to approximately 13 thousand
m2.
One of the main architectonic concepts of the four-storey buildings is
to adapt its facade to the modern technological requirements. This is how a system
of photovoltaic cells inside the window walls will supply energy to the site
facilities, whereas interactive external blinds will automatically interact
with changing weather conditions.
Glass skylight will protect the InnovationCenter patio from rain
and snow. It will additionally be covered with perforated steel, for the sun
spots to imitate luminary impacts of the hail of meteorites.
CracowTechnologyPark will also recover energy
from the system of photovoltaic panels used in the under-cover outside parking
place.
