Enhancing historic industrial architecture with innovation and elegance
Realized by Studio Giuseppe Tortato Architetti, the intervention was created with the aim of regenerating the building originally occupied by the Ex-Sandvik company by creating a connection with the surrounding urban space, in a perfect dialogue between the original architectural layout and the new needs of those who live in the city, between public and private space. In fact, a specific request from the landscape commission, apt to preserve the forms of historic industrial architecture, led to the decision to maintain the geometries of the pre-existing barrel vaults, which cover about 50 percent of the entire lot.
An ambitious project, which, in addition to respecting the identity of the structure, opens up to the Milano Certosa District with a square with the intention of rebuilding an economic, urban and social fabric that has been absent for years.
