Italian architecture studio Piuarch finishes a new luxury production factory for Fendi that is located in Florence, specifically in the municipality of Bagno a Ripoli. The rooftop shines in the spotlight as it is detailed with greenery to appear like it is a 'raised garden' which is made to truly reflect the surroundings.
Co-founder and partner at Piuarch speaks about the design to Dezeen, noting that "The Fendi production building looks like a raised garden, conceived to mend a long-standing rift in the terrain and recreate the hillside of the site in which it is located. The building, apparently underground owing to the landscaping choice of creating a continuous and extensive green roof, becomes an integrated ecological system that recreates the contours of the land to restore the shape of the original hillside."
