Energetic Lighting: Yankon's Innovative LED Headquarters in Belgium
Project's Summary
Yankon, a leading Chinese manufacturer of LED lighting, has made its foray into the European market with their latest venture, Energetic Lighting. As part of this new venture, Yankon has established a logistics headquarters in Kontich, Belgium. This state-of-the-art facility comprises a warehouse, offices, and a showroom, strategically located just five minutes away from the E19 highway.
The architectural design of the building is a reflection of Yankon's corporate branding, aiming to convey a sense of "lightness". This effect has been achieved through the use of white industrial concrete in combination with a gradient curtain wall façade, incorporating transparent and semi-transparent glazing. The structure itself undergoes a transformation from a solemn industrial monolith at the rear to a rhythmically composed curtain wall as it moves towards the front.
One of the notable features of the building is the glazed volume that appears to float above the ground level, creating a recessed covered loading dock. This design not only enhances the functionality of the facility but also adds an element of visual interest. Additionally, the floating showroom located overhead showcases Yankon's innovative LED lighting products in a unique and captivating manner.
The strategic location of the logistics headquarters, bordering on an industrial park and a residential cluster, ensures convenient access for transportation and easy reach for potential customers. The close proximity to the E19 highway further facilitates efficient logistics operations. With this new venture, Yankon aims to solidify its presence in the European market and establish itself as a trusted provider of high-quality LED lighting solutions.
In conclusion, Yankon's entry into the European market with their Energetic Lighting project is a testament to their commitment to global expansion. The architectural design of their logistics headquarters in Kontich perfectly embodies the essence of their corporate branding, reflecting a sense of lightness and innovation. With its strategic location and impressive design features, the facility is poised to become a hub for showcasing Yankon's cutting-edge LED lighting products to customers in Europe and beyond.
