SKYSAWA is a complex of two office buildings located at 36 and 38 Świętokrzyska St. in Warsaw. With a total GLA of 34,530 m², the complex’s distinct cascading architecture with pencil-thin 155 m. tower reshapes one of the city’s central districts, giving new life to a long-neglected plot of land. Central location, access to a dense public transport network, direct access from the building to the metro station, proximity to bicycle paths, modern infrastructure for cyclists (incl. 280 parking spaces) and electric car charging stations encourage the users of the complex to choose sustainable forms of transport. Both buildings of the complex are certified under the BREEM International New Construction 2016 system and received the highest ratings in Poland with the Outstanding grade (SAWA – Final, SKY – Interim). The technological solutions and environment-friendly materials used lower the complex’s energy demand, maximising its efficiency and significantly reducing water consumption.
