Nice Headquarters
As a business card of the company's philosophy, the main building is a dynamic space rising up from the ground and wrapping itself up with an upward movement around the empty space in the central court, called “egg”, a real and proper garden adding light and cheerfulness to the whole building.
The front covering is made of zinc-titanium; the awning is made of Okumè wood panels and placed on the large windows of the top floor.
The colour of the walls, the fitted carpet and the furniture mark out the interiors and identitify the operation areas; daylight flows through the building thanks to the open-spaces and to the glass partition whereas the artificial light acts as on a set design highlighting spaces, lines and surfaces.
Inside there is a bar and fitness area for the staff, a refreshment room with a kitchen and an auditorium characterized by a shell shaped wooden ceiling which gradually becomes first the backdrop then the floor and finally by rolling back on itself the speaker's table.
