 It has been a great challenge to design a working space highly representative of the architectural firm’s own identity.

An old industrial building, previously serving as a carpentry and dance school, has been chosen as our new home. A major intervention in the indoors, allowed the architects to provide the building with a “new life” that is a solid “manifesto” of their method that enhances a consistent use of the materials.

The new concrete-faced structure allowed to double the surface of the building, obtaining a new floor. The roofing skylights facing north and the glass windows in the main front-facing south contribute with direct natural light.

The building develops in two open-space levels: the ground floor is a public space used for meetings, expositions, and events, while the first floor is the real working space.
