Rasquinet Park

This park, designed by Baukunst, forms a welcoming green oasis in a dense neighborhood. The site that once housed a bike pedal factory, is transformed into a lively park equipped with a playground and outdoor gym, all custom designed by the architects.

The pinnacle of the park is the astonishing concrete structure in the back, that due to the topographical height difference, towers over the green space. The canopy structures the park and enlarges its depth. It could house small events, but day-to-day it’s the backdrop for many football and basketball games. As with Baukunst’s other work the canopy feels like an object on the line between engineering (BAU) and art (KUNST). The refined detailing takes the structure to the next level.

philosophy

A complex research which aims to highlight the quality of architecture over any other aspect. We believe that architecture plays a meaningful role in society and that architects should be able to share the beauty they manage to create through their works, in a well mannered and considerate way: free of distractive advertisements and unpleasant commercials. Complesco is therefore a focused platform that wishes to take architecture to the highest level of consideration, believing that an appropriate selection will win over quantitative and generic architecture that is taking over the places we inhabit. Complesco is a tool to stop cheap apathy and indifference, towards a possible future of surrounding beauty.

Do not hesitate to contact us at info@complesco.com. We make it our priority to reply hastily!
