Project description

The first thing you will notice about the STABILO CUBE is its striking black box design, which stands in stark contrast to its surroundings. The facade, crafted from EQUITONE [pictura] in matte black, features a lightweight and high-density material that is easy to cut and perforate, resulting in a visually enigmatic exterior. This design creates a monolithic statement, even from a distance.

Entering the building offers a distinctly different experience from the exterior. Each spatial area—foyer, showroom, conference room, or workroom—is vividly monotone, with each space boasting its own distinct color. These colors become striking elements of the overall interior of the cube. The use of galleries, foyers, and airspaces allows the full volume of the cube to be truly experienced.
