ZORA Logistics Park in Bozhurishte was designed by IPA - Architecture and more as a complex of administrative and warehouse spaces supporting the company's retail network. The project forms part of the studio's portfolio of industrial buildings and is located on a 78,257 sq m site, with a gross floor area of 23,201 sq m.
The development is organized in two phases. The first includes a two-story administrative center and four warehouse modules that can operate independently or as an integrated system. The second phase adds four additional warehouse modules, further expanding the storage capacity of the complex.
A key objective of the architectural design is to combine maximum storage capacity with efficient loading and handling operations. The warehouse spaces exceed 11 m in height and use a VNA configuration with high-bay racking and narrow forklift aisles, allowing the internal volume to be used more efficiently and supporting faster movement of goods. Mezzanine areas accommodate part of the administrative program within the warehouse volumes.
The warehouse modules are served by 26 loading docks. Separate parking areas for trucks and passenger vehicles are positioned around the perimeter of the site, with dedicated access routes that organize circulation within the complex and connect it to the surrounding road infrastructure.
The administrative building includes offices of different sizes and meeting rooms, together with a fitness area, relaxation spaces, dining facilities, a sauna, and a steam room. These functions create a distinct workplace environment alongside the logistics operations and broaden the program beyond storage and distribution.
The facades reflect ZORA's corporate identity through a combination of white and graphite gray. The administrative volume is distinguished by a curtain wall and aluminum composite cladding, while extensive glazing brings natural light into the office areas and visually differentiates them from the warehouse modules.
As part of the project's sustainable design strategy, rooftop photovoltaic systems contribute to the energy efficiency of the complex and reduce its reliance on external energy sources.
