Elysia Park

In 2021, a contemporary residential complex has arisen in a unique park environment near the centre of Edegem, next to the Park Ter Linden domain and the historic Fort V. Polo-Architects designed the generous Elysia Park, consisting of 385 residential units, divided between four residential clusters, each with its own individual property and functional characteristics. Staco took on the realisation of the steel wall cladding along the secure bicycle storage facilities.

Elysia Park is a contemporary project that accommodates a variety of residential forms and functions. It is located in a beautiful park near the centre of Edegem. The generous residential complex overlooks the unique domain of Hof ter Linden and Fort V, an area for walking, cycling and relaxing.

Each residential cluster was provided with a locked bicycle shed on the ground floor, for safe storage of the residents' bicycles. Choosing simultaneous façade gratings, tailored to the storey height, aesthetic added value was created, with a sleek industrial touch. This creates a pleasing sequence of the mesh pattern, which in fact optically increases the ceiling height thanks to a different mesh size of 33x99mm.

The burglar-resistant doors were also fully custom integrated, in consultation with the manufacturer. The door frames, for example, were constructed from tubular profiles and fitted with double-bearing hinges to make sure the heavy doors have a light closing mechanism.
Staircases were also integrated from this zone, in which Staco steps and parapets can also be recognised. Here, too, a recurring mesh pattern keeps the design and interplay of the different steel structures calm.

With this project, Staco once more demonstrated its added value by realising challenging customisation, with smooth collaboration with the right partners leading to the desired end result!
