The new Bonfiglioli Headquarters, located in the outskirts of Bologna, Italy, arises from the need to create an efficient and functional office building that expresses the professionalism, innovation, and proud history of the Italian company.
Bonfiglioli is a global leader in the design, production, and distribution of a full range of gearmotors, drive systems, planetary gearboxes, and inverters, handling the most complex demands in industrial automation, mobile machinery, and renewable energy.
The People Mover designed for the city of Bologna is a transport system that is innovative in terms of technology, the regulation of circulation and architectural features.The infrastructure, with a total length of 5084 metres, is composed of a monorail, with two terminals – at the airport and the train station and the intermediate stop of Lazzaretto, about halfway along the route, where the cars cross. The stop includes the depot and workshop, as well as the centralized control station. The stops and the bridge over the ring-road/motorway system were designed based on a type of architecture that takes into account the need to connect an infrastructure to an urban fabric that will undergo major redevelopment work, but that is partially absorbed by the outlying countryside. Its stops are set in different contexts in terms of both architectural structure and urban fabric. The stops are connected to each other via a route with a walkway running along the track, serving as a passenger escape route in case of emergency.
Mastery, Design, Uniqueness, our practice has transformed the three key concepts assigned by Kale Group – worldwide leading brand of ceramic materials – into a minimal geometric shape. The symbol of infinity is the design inspiration for this temporary showroom. Two merging circles representing perfection and durability create the rounded bold enclosure.
This design is conceived as a great theatrical machine. It’s a wide fragmented stage studded with scenic constructions highlighting the qualities of the collections of tiles on display. So, not just another commercial show, rather a different way to represent the nature of this kind of product, adding a poetic value to it.
Villa Boncompagni alla Cicogna is located in the heart of the Bolognese countryside, in San Lazzaro di Savena: a 16th century villa situated at the end of a long avenue of lime trees along the historic Via Emilia, one of the last works by the famous architect Jacopo Barozzi. Commissioned by Marquis Giacomo Boncompagni, son of Pope Gregory XIII, as a noble residence, the historic residence has been converted into the headquarters of the Academy of Unipol Group thanks to the interior design of the Florentine studio Pierattelli Architetture.
In a society that seems to focus on contrasts and move towards opposites Novoceram prefers to celebrate the beauty of opposites with its stand Antipodes for the 2018 edition of the Cersaie, International Exhibition of Ceramics for Architecture and Furnishings for Rooms from Baths, from 24 to 28 September 2018 in Bologna..
The new primary school in Loiano was completed and tested in 12 months in respect of the times and amounts of contract and without reservation by the enterprise and public administration.
As an established tradition of the study, the search for a harmonious relationship with the geographical context and the well-being of future users drove the design and subsequent implementation.
The volumes of the school building, located in an area of scenic interest at the Bologna Apennines, were partly buried to limit the visual impact upstream, thus to obtain two distinct levels for classes and workshops, both with free rein to the spacious green areas.
Our design for Kale’s new stand at Cersaie 17 pushes the company at the forefront of a new trend: a mutable and fluid ceramics market made of smaller numbers, higher quality and wider offer. It’s a simple, light design – almost a pop-up temporary showroom – along with a very iconic visual communication.
The cafè turns to the main square whose corten finishings are get. Inside, the functional needs of managers overlap with the restoration of existing spaces and colors while at the same time the entrance and the windows become privileged cocoons where looking and being looked at. The alternation of light and dark allows the sense of belonging and rest. Furniture, tables, chairs and upholstered are esclusive design. An outdoor area completes and extends the cafeteria in the main square of the town.
A barn from the 1960s turned into a workplace for the artist, an experimental and narrative environment where the light and surrounding hills shape the architecture.
