the challenge
to design an innovative headquarter for an eco-oriented company specialising in waste recycling, on an area of 1000 square metres close to the ring road. The objective: to create a building capable of catching the eye and embodying the values of sustainability and innovation, while maintaining functionality and comfort for those who live there every day. A challenging competition, where aesthetics, efficiency and green identity had to merge into a single architectural sign.

the solution
we proposed a three-storey building above ground with a terrace, designed as a dynamic organism. On the inner side, facing south, a glazed buffer houses a vertical greenhouse, creating a natural filter that regulates light and temperature, bringing the vitality of greenery inside. On the tangential front, a spectacular metal ‘L’ coloured green, engraved with the company logo in different sizes, becomes a landmark and at the same time a screen for the connecting stairs. The open space offices are designed to encourage collaboration and wellbeing: fluid spaces, hypoallergenic fabrics, sound-absorbing panels, colour plays of green, yellow and orange, for a warm, energetic and comfortable environment. A project that transforms architecture into a manifesto of corporate values.
