A restoration and functional recovery
of an office unit
which blends history with a taste for the contemporary.

The central nave, created from an old 17th-century hallway, a place for the exchange of ideas and a daily meeting point, is the watershed, but also the basin of confluence, between the design and administration areas and those for research, graphics and publishing.
The two working areas find in the barycentric facing towards the inner courtyard, made of structural glass, an ideal outlet towards the future and the city. Transparency testifies to the continuous visibility of the ideas that are constantly discussed, produced and reworked in the studio's spaces: architecture becomes itself a testimony to a way of thinking and a belief in the discipline itself.
A restoration and functional recovery of an office unit that blends history with contemporary taste.
