dejan todorović designed the new würth serbia training & test center in belgrade inside a former 540 sqm warehouse. keeping the raw, industrial feel of the warehouse, he created two main spaces separated by a large translucent polycarbonate wall. with a clean material palette and minimal colors, the designer achieved to create a sophisticated training and test center for the company.

the first of the two spaces added by the architect, contains a large steel mesh cage used as a demo center for cnc plasma and laser cutting machines, and a testing room for products from the company’s wide assortment. the translucent wall with a 30 m long built-in shelf closes a 270 sqm multi-purpose training space that can easily be transformed to serve any programatic purpose. by simply rearranging the dividing panels, it can become anything from series of individual classrooms or offices, to conference space, gallery, even a party venue.

the main constructive structures of the cage and the wall are made entirely out of box section steel profiles, filled with expanded steel mesh and upholstered with large format transparent polycarbonate screens. the rhythmic arrangement of milky white and transparent polycarbonate screens provides the necessary conditions for ephemeral ambients that are created from the light filtering through, reflecting and refracting through the translucent material.
