Centro Direzionale via dell'Arte - Saint-Gobain International Gypsum Trophy

CENTRO DIREZIONALE VIA DELL'ARTE - Gypsum International Trophy 2018

Project description

The directional center in Via Dell’Arte 25 consists of 3 elegant and functional buildings dating back to the 70s. It is located in the prestigious EUR district which is one of the most important and famous tertiary poles of the capital. Building B, the largest of the buildings with about 20,000 square meters of offices, was the first to be completely refinished, with the aim of recovering the architectural features of the facades and modernizing the interior spaces, making them more functional and flexible to the typical needs of contemporary workplaces. The complex offers high standards in terms of both technology and aesthetics, with advanced design solutions and systems – based on maximum energy efficiency and very low environmental impact – aiming at achieving the prestigious international LEED Gold certification.
