Fondazione Feltrinelli
Milano / Italy
0
A grid of glazing covers the long, gabled form of this Milan building designed by Swiss firm Herzog & de Meuron to host a research centre and offices.
The Feltrinelli Porta Volta building occupies a plot of land in the city's Porta Volta district – named after a gate in the 16th-century walls that once surrounded the city.
Its elongated and pointed volume is carved up in sections. One 2,500-square-metre block is occupied by the Fondazione Giangiacomo Feltrinelli – a foundation dedicated to research on contemporary society. Two further sections contain offices.
