LAMBER + LAMBER have complete a creative studio located in Modena, North of Italy. The office are located inside and existing volume once used for the production of the famous “aceto balsamico”. The studio works with a simple and strong concept of the box in the box interior. The offices itself is two storey high which each floor representing a formally different spatial organization. A green spiral staircase made by metal and wooden steps connects the two floors. The other specific element of the office is the entrance conceived as a small public space inside the existing building, acting as a filter between the street and the interior. The ground floor is conceived as an open plan, one continuos space in which the elements of forniture could be freely distributed, one continuous and sinous wall contains all the services (small kitchen, bathrooms, and technical storage). The second floor (private office part) is strictly divided by trasparent walls. The first floor is visually connected to the ground floor trough a narrow double height space enlighted by internal window.
The area lies at the heart of the industrial complex Ferrari in Maranello.
The center, located between the Wind Tunnel and the building of the engineering sector, represents the predominant image of Ferrari SpA. This building houses the offices of the technical direction of Ferrari.
In 2004 Future Systems won an international competition to design a new museum in Modena, Italy. Dedicated to motor racing legend and entrepreneur Enzo Ferrari (1898 – 1988), the museum comprises exhibition spaces within the early nineteenth century house where the motor racing giant was born and raised, and its adjoining workshop, as well as a separate, newly constructed exhibition building.
The project for Sant’ Agostino was born and developed around a reflection on the main element that characterizes the site: its network of courtyards and open spaces that provide access and a flow of movement through the space. This is articulated in the architectural stratification, symptomatic of the history and evolution of the Sant’ Agostino complex.
The different layers of architecture are an integral and important part of the very soul of this place.
