PRESS REVIEW
MISSION
Contribute as a single part in the transformation of the building industry towards environmental sustainability criteria that reports not only to energy performances of the building but also to the quality of its indoor quality and the recovery of traditional materials. The energy performance of the building reached and pushed to the highest levels must closely relate to the "simplicity" of the building organism comprised in its operation, management and especially in its “durability”. The building is a complex organism where achieving Mies (ian) memory of "less is more" is strongly present not only in terms of formal aesthetic. We are getting used even in contemporary architecture to images that must "wear out" quickly, they must impress, strike but we see icons that become old early. To the "complication" of the energy performance building it needs a "simplification" as a return to natural materials and longevity of the tradition, often attempt difficult but necessary. To get an "integrated" production both the design and the management of the building as a process need a continuous and constant work in progress, with a focus on sustainability protocols such as the LEED® rating system represents in the world.
