New Headquarters "Cacciatori di Puglia"

Additional Info

Award Winner : RI SpA

Architectural Excellence : The project consists of the construction of three buildings with prefabricated modules, for office and residential use, located in Amendola Military Airport (Italy). These modules sat on concrete plinth to minimize site work. The units were clad with metal painted corrugated steel panels on site. The roofs of the units sloped lengthwise to drain rainwater into pipes hidden between interior walls and to be reused in the outdoor garden.

Cost Energy Effectiveness : The building is a cost-effective solution, which provides high quality sustainable residential development at an affordable price point. In particular, the modular structure is covered with a roof that integrates a new type of solar panel that can both produce electrical energy and thermal energy to power, heat and cool the house. The purpose of the new design is to create a comfortable and sustainable building and also to reduce long-term running costs for the owner.
