September, 2021
La Manufacture lays on the Tuscan hills and is divided into rigorous and elegant volumes that interpret its shape. The new building, with 5,200 square meters intended to accommodate 250 artisans, establishes a direct relationship with the Tuscan countryside: its facade’s glass-block walls allow the artisans to enjoy the view of the landscape, receive indirect sunlight, and see the natural progression of the days and the seasons in the workspace.
This project has been longlisted among 1.139 projects in the Buisiness Building category of Dezeen Awards 2021.
The Plan announces La Manufacture got the honorable mention
September, 2021
The production sites are acquiring more and more value as “identity laboratories” of a brand and the presence of Celine in Radda in Chianti seems to confirm the existence of a privileged connection between this Italian area and luxury brands, by virtue of the landscape surrounding and the very high professionalism of the craftsmanship present. In the factory, located outside the industrial areas and inserted in an environment of environmental value, a search for quality, beauty and well-being, a renewed dialogue with the territory and the environment, presents as a new occasion for architectural experimentation.
This project has been mentioned in the Production/Complete category of The Plan Award 2021 Awards 2021
