Allegro is a Polish online auction website based in Pozna. It was formed in 1999 and subsequently purchased by online auction site QXL Ricardo plc (now Tradus) in March 2000. The building has seven floors and is 12 000 square meters and was designed by the architecture firm JEMS. It has a very characteristic shape: from the north calm and flat, while the southern elevation consists of several two-story loggia, creating a distinctive chessboard. The shape of the building itself acted as the inspiration for this project. The inner shared space is a reflection of the outer facade. Space is separated by cabinets made of painted pine plywood.
