projects
Our passion and drive have been instrumental to the success of numerous projects both domestically and all around the world.
All of those projects have different characteristics, different background stories and different specific requirements.
But each and every one of them embodies our whole experience.
They are all unique.
From industrial hangars to high-bay warehouses, from bold suspension bridges to glass skyscrapers in the world’s largest cities, we have realised more than 2000 projects over the years.
The following selection showcases our various areas of competence.

Rome, a glass horizon alongside the railway
The BNL BNP Paribas headquarters, known as Orizzonte Europa, extends alongside Tiburtina Station as a linear and continually changing volume that reconnects architecture and infrastructure. Designed by Atelier(s) Alfonso Femia and Peluffo & Partners, the building changes appearance in response to the light, owing to a faceted profile that transcends the traditional distinction between front and rear elevations.
The envelope combines mullion-and-transom façades, unitised curtain wall systems, windows and doors, and ventilated cladding. Transparent surfaces, opaque elements and geometric variations create an articulated skin designed to ensure construction accuracy, technical performance and compositional continuity throughout the building.
The project transforms the façade into an urban device responsive to light and movement, giving the new corporate headquarters a distinctive identity within Rome’s contemporary cityscape.
