On the border between places of living and industrial settlements arise widespread opportunity to renew the urban identity and the settlement models.
From the beginning of 2000’s the south-east Turin’s area is affected by important changes: the new, smaller size of the Fiat Mirafiori factory and many other companies plant in the area, have enabled urban regeneration processes.
Moreover, the system of public mobility (the Metro line2) and the new West Side Urban boulevard (corso Marche project) will offer new and exciting opportunities.
The Tazzoli Tower for office and services, with a 2004 project, proposes a strong identity model compared to the anonymous character of the site. The construction system is straightforward and simple: structure c.a., outer skin with a curtain wall system Schuco modular, floating floor; the finishes are reserved for end users who can organize the interior space with great freedom.
The circular layout of the two external volumes are united by a single stand for the first 4 floors. The stairs placed in the central part with two pairs of elevators, for each tower, made with steel structure and cladding glass.
As part of Urban Regeneration Programme, already approved in 2016, it is ongoing a project to complete the area with destinations compatible with the environment.
