Refurbishment of the building Palazzo dell’ex Unione Militare in Rome, whose austere lines betray its early 20th Century origins.
The refurbishment of the building is the work of Studio Fuksas and the project was carried out by Stahlbau Pichler for the Benetton Group which then sold the building to the H&M Group. The Fuksas design recovered all the original features of the building that time had worn away, restoring the building’s integrity and noble origins.
Our hand in the project was to increase the fire-resistance of the iron structures using reactive paint on the elements on view and plaster on the false ceilings.
