Text description provided by the architects. Introduction and Challenges. Our latest office project in Italy was a demanding assignment for which we had only a year and a half to plan and build. It is a unique project consisting of renovating a 60's building and adjoining a new extension to wrap the original volume. Rather than opting for a completely new construction, we agreed with the client to reuse and extend their former office to achieve the sustainability targets that we agreed upon. One of the main challenges of this project was to seamlessly blend the two structures, existing and new, and convert them into one unique, cohesive entity. The first step to achieve this was defining the precise geometry determined by the difference between the maximum allowed volume by the zoning code and the old building shape.
