Dolce&Gabbana Headquarters
The new Dolce&Gabbana headquarters are located in Viale Piave, near the historic center of Milan. The long and narrow shape of the lot and the volume of the existing building have led to a solution developed in three parallel buildings. The central one is suspended on a building, orthogonal with respect to the road, which connects the three constructions. In this way a large and deep inner courtyard is created, onto which all the buildings overlook.

The internal façades resume, geometry and size, the pattern of square modules prospectus Viale Piave, made of panels of GRC - Glass Reinforced Concrete with glass doors and windows.
From the entrance can be perceive the depth of the court connecting the three buildings, the façade is animated by artificial light, attracting the view.
