Entry Description

An office building constructed at 138 Korfantego Avenue in Katowice was built on a post-industrial area on the place of the former Katowice Printing Works. The monochromatic diagram of the elevation, based on black and white colours, evokes the matrix of an artistic print, developed in relief printing in the form of a linocut. Such an expressive drawing of the 'linocut' elevation, gives the impression of a freeze-frame, as if the dynamic movement on the different levels of the building had been frozen in an instant in the frame of the image and had become the defining feature of the building
