The Seneka

Logistics Offices 

This four-storey, 5700m² building, which is embedded in a 4063m2 plot in the municipality of Kifissia, houses the Storage and Distribution Centre of Seneka Logistics S.A. Starting point of the design process was the optimal placement of the massive robotic logistics system, which is crucial for the company’s operation, in a large building shell.

The building is conceived as a monolithic gray mass that is interrupted by a white balcony on the second floor, dividing the structure into two nearly equal parts and distinguishing the different functions inside. The exterior white, shading system of the southern and western façade creates a homogeneous second skin that hides the complexity of the required openings.

The only exception to the white and gray elements is the yellow colour of the fire escape staircase and the main entrance of the building. The clean lines of the design fully align with the building programme and prioritize the functionality of the space.
