GEZA ARCHITETTURA

PROGETTO ITALIA

FURLA HEADQUARTERS
Furla Headquarters “ Progetto Italia ”: an industrial architecture and office project integrated into nature , where working environment , sustainability and landscape are harmoniously conceived .
The new Furla Headquarters are located in Tavarnelle Val di Pesa , in the province of Florence , immersed in the Chianti area . The project highlights a paramount theme : the integration of the industrial architecture into the Italian landscape , providing an opportunity to rethink the quality of the workspace .
Architecture and nature are perfectly blended along all directions to create a unique element where the design and the Chianti landscape ( defined by hills , heritage , and agricultural areas ) communicate harmoniously .
The Furla factory covers 42,000 sq m of soil - 18,300 sq m built - and has three main volumes ( one for offices , two for labs and logistics ) designed to be harmoniously integrated into the surrounding landscape , without too much contrast . Architecture and nature coexist in a functional balance .
