The CUBO project in Torre Unipol was born with the desire to represent the multifaceted and contemporary identity of CUBO, inserting itself and adapting itself within the existing architectural space, through the choice of materials, finishes and furnishing elements.
After a careful analysis of the spaces and materials present, the design phase followed: each object is conceived as a sculptural architectural element that fits into the space, manifesting its presence and at the same time merging with the environment.
The furniture finishes match the interior cladding of the tower, such as alucobond tops, anthracite grey and aluminium grey finishes, and reflective mirror surfaces.
The reception desks are designed according to multi-faceted, dynamic and contemporary shapes, while at the same time reflecting the existing flooring thanks to the mirror coatings.
Similarly, the cupboards and bookcases adjacent to the central body of the tower clad in grey kerlite slabs are minimalist and monolithic elements that blend in with the space through their anthracite grey colouring and the side mirror cladding, which reflects the material.
Like "Brushstrokes of red on canvas", the upholstery of the armchairs and the finish of the tables brighten up the reception and refreshment areas.
