Autumn 2010 REPORT Magazine by Reynaers Aluminium for Architects and Investors #7 Autumn 2010 REPORT Magazine by Reynaers Aluminium for architects and investors COCA-COLA HEAD- QUARTERS A building with a captivating twist FOCUS The versatility of colour and form MUSEUM EXTENSION Subtle dialogue by :mlzd Publisher responsible: Lien Verfaillie Production: #7 RSM Co-Publishers COLOUR AND SHAPE lthough sight is not the only sense, which we use to perceive architecture – we can also use our senses of touch, smell and hearing to detect three-dimensional space – what we Asee with our eyes does have the most impact on our reaction to the built environment. There are few aspects of a building or city which can trigger such a strong emotional response as do colour and shape. Colours and shapes create specific moods and affect one’s state of mind. Colours can make you cheerful or depressed, tranquil or nervous. Colours can be felt as being warm or cold, relaxed or agitated, and they can also create an illusion of greater space or less space. Shapes and colours make it possible for architecture to be strikingly present or to take a back seat, to impress the onlooker or to bring on a sense of peace and tranquillity. In today’s world, dominated by a culture strongly focused on the visual, shape and colour have an overwhelming impact on the way architecture expresses itself. Colour and shape are the primary attributes which differentiate between buildings as well as between cities and give each of these its own individual identity, and this is something that is becoming ever more important in an increasingly globalised world. It is, at any rate, quite clear that shape is more than just the result of a functional spatial analysis (the modernist ‘Form Follows Function’) and that colour is more than a cosmetic layer of paint. Its impact goes much deeper than the skin of a building, which is why it would be only logical to ensure that the use of colour and shape is an integral part of the design process from the very beginning. In its role as a partner for architects, Reynaers is of the opinion that the colours and shapes of materials should not impose any limitations on a design but should rather expand and enrich it. Due to its enormous variation in terms of colour and shape, aluminium can do exactly that. It gives the architect practically unlimited freedom. In addition, we offer architects specific design solutions, which can add an extra dimension to the creative process. For example, we produce and supply aluminium in 400 different colours and also provide a wide range of products and tailor- made accessories for any desired shape. Even a brief look into this issue of Report shows what kinds of effects architects can achieve in terms of colour and shape when working together with Reynaers, ranging from the very subtle to the highly spectacular.

THERE IS MORE THAN THESE TWO CONCEPTS IN THE LIFE OF AN ARCHITECT, BUT THEY ARE ESSENTIAL MEANS FOR GIVING SHAPE TO THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT. 4 5 At the centre of the world’s first Ferrari theme park, loca- ted on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, is the iconic, Ferrari red roof of the world’s largest indoor park, Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, designed by Benoy Architects, Abu Dhabi. Its shape is directly inspired by the classic double curve of the Ferrari body shell, ultimately resulting in an architecture that presents the language, values and passion of the Ferrari brand itself. he masterly, correct and magnificent play of masses ‘T brought together in light.’ This is how Le Corbusier defined architecture in 1923. Though countless other aspects also play important roles, this definition perfectly conveys the essentials of architecture: form and colour, which is made possible by light. Architecture may be the art of making space, as the Dutch architect Gerrit Rietveld has commented, but form and colour are noticed first, and only then does one notice space. In looking at contemporary architecture, one is struck by a remarkable profusion of form and colour. Computer technology has given architects a world of possibilities for designing complex forms. Reynaers designed nearly thirty new FOCUS profiles, twelve new gaskets and count- less fittings for this spectacular project in Abu Dhabi. For the enormous funnel in the middle of the 210.000 m2 roof surface, a bespoke façade solution was developed that, due to the special shape of the funnel, was mounted on a 3D steel support system. 6 It’s clear that architectonic design is no longer dictated by the right angle and the verti- cal line. However, it’s still necessary to make the step from design to realisation. The façade systems from Reynaers Aluminium can play a crucial role in this, because making complex forms convincing requires perfect technical re- alisation. Nothing is more disturbing than a flow- ing line which doesn’t flow. Plus in most cases, not everything about a building is curved and tilted, which does reduce complexity, but which also results in complicated connections. BESPOKE SOLUTIONS The strength of the Reynaers façade systems lies in the fact that there is a lot of flexibility to make non-standard connections, meaning that one of the existing systems can often be adapt- ed. If this doesn’t work, it’s possible to choose a custom-made solution. Reynaers designed nearly thirty new profiles, twelve new gaskets, and countless fittings for the spectacular Ferrari World theme park in Abu Dhabi. The façade was made from a bespoke version of CW 86-EF.
