Progetto Metropolis
Monday, 03 July 2017It is a new building to complement the previously built establishment, consisting of five other buildings for use as workshops and offices. It consists of four floors above ground and each floor contains real estate units in duplex, with internal staircases for access to the upper floor. It also has two underground floors for use as a garage. The architecture recalls the industrial establishments in the east of Milan, with large windows in the façade and masonry in exposed terracotta brickwork. The lighting also comes from the large windows that overlook the interior. The premises and various unit distribution were planned in the empty interior of the building, with the realization of staircases and walkways in iron partially covered with glass canopies. The pedestrian and driveway access to the building is directly from the Via Ripamonti.
