Article source: Studio Marco Piva Le Terrazze provided an opportunity to demonstrate that an existing structure can be retrieved, giving it a totally new concept. The aim was to create a multi-functional building to combine living spaces with common areas: an hotel, an auditorium for cultural events, a wellness center, a restaurant, a business and a commercial area, a residence with different houses typology. A suitable solution for aggregate the residents of the complex, to strengthen social relations but also for facilitate the relations between the building, the city, and the surrounding territory, respecting the housing and cultural traditions of the place. From the recovery of the past has been created a new innovative project, a pleasant place to live or simply to enjoy. An opportunity to increase services to residents, business people, tourists. A highly stimulating environment to live, work, socialize, shop or relax. A new scenographic implant in the Treviso area.  Image Courtesy © Studio Marco Piva

The basement provides parking for residents and users of the structure of the common areas, the ground floor, inter-related with the urban context, for the commercial activities, the first floor for offices , meeting spaces, the second floor house a four-star hotel and, third floor for private houses and the fourth floor is characterized by the presence of highly relevant hanging gardens of houses below.

The theme of the green provides the link between the environment and the bucolic surroundings of hyperactive Pontebbana on which the structure faces. Designed as a uniform landscaping, stimulates symbiotic relationship with the land and offers opportunities to socialize.

And then the many and varied services: parking for the residents of the building, indoor and outdoor, gym, restaurant, commercial offices, a fitness center. The complex, with the scenic effect of the structural elements, plays on the themes of transparency and opacity due to the choice of coating materials and finish. And the pleasure is reflected in the experiential quality of life.
