The transparent building envelope consists of windows and glazed mirrors with high energy performance. of insulation) consisting of: internal finishing paneling in plasterboard sound-absorbing insulating mat modular brick elements insulating mats of different thickness breathable/waterproofing sheath air chamber metal structure in aluminum elements to support the metal faГ§ade cladding in 'Rehinzink'. The blind building envelope has a total thickness of 52 cm. Technologically, the new factory is characterized by the search for a 'collected form' to optimize the S/V ratio, ('Surface on Volume'), while conditioning the possibilities offered by the scope of intervention. It combines and encloses aspects and compositional, technological and passive mitigation of the conditions at the built contour. Outside the built volume, a mirror of water, firm, re-proposes the bond of man with the essential natural element. Everyone is part of the same work team and feels equally protagonists leaning towards a new business growth. In their office no one is isolated does not feel the sensation of being in a delocalized or secondary position.

The widespread use of transparent surfaces makes possible the sensory development of teamwork. On the first and second floor two open spaces are furnished with transparent movable walls recreating office spaces at noon and a distribution corridor jutting out over the internal garden. The extended white of the surfaces and the black highlighting the structures stand out. On the ground floor, the entrance hall, welcomes the visitor between a body of still water and a neat, almost rigorous garden. Two other service stairs and an elevator system complete the vertical paths inside the new building. The shape of the balustrade, together with the poor perception of the type element tread-raised, allows you to deceive the eye by representing steps of filtering light from the large transparent mirrors characterizing the entire building. Inside, various functions have been located on three different levels connected to each other by a main staircase, made of steel sheet bent and suspended by means of strands to the metal profiles of the roof. The new construction was motivated by the conviction of having to implement countermeasures aimed at limiting emissions into the atmosphere resulting from the consumption of non-renewable energy sources, the orientation towards sustainable construction and not least the prospect of lower management costs in living in the building. The new management building has approached the existing one leaning on the transparent void. It has made it possible to expand the existing faГ§ade openings to allow greater permeability to filtering light through the glass surfaces on the roof. The creation of a 'hinge / greenhouse' of important environmental value and in terms of quality of life of the built space.

At the various levels, the portion overlooking the industrial building has been delegated to the location of appurtenant spaces and services. The southern portion, overlooking the 'winter garden' has maintained an exhibition destination, representation and / or training of staff.

Through a systematic set of works, the architectural, functional and energetic redevelopment of the portion of the existing office building, included in the main building volume, adapting it to the new corporate needs with the localization of representative and training spaces of a temporal nature of permanence, has come to life. The existing structures were no longer suitable for receiving visiting client delegations for corporate image, available surfaces and equipment. The relocation of some company processes has led to the consequent transfer of part of the staff from one industrial area to another. The redevelopment interventions involved functional and performance aspects of the southern portion of the existing industrial building hosting the office areas have seen the construction of a new office building led to the modification of the layout of the external appurtenant area south, as well as to the study of the redevelopment of the southern perspective front of the industrial building in order to make it consistent with the new architectural aspect of the complex. has led the Company to acquire the finished industrial building the historic headquarters, in consideration of the relative simplicity of connection between the existing building emergencies, while being aware of having to intervene heavily in the redevelopment of the site.
