Blustyle
One of the projects implemented thanks to the “Nuova Polis” trust, which, after 30th May 2012, following the second tremor of the earthquake that struck several municipalities in Emilia Romagna, saw the presidents of Confindustria, Confservizi, CGIL, CISL and UIL come together and launch a solidarity fund for those affected by the earthquake, the “Nuovo Picchio” Centre for disabled people is the result of a collective effort that led to the construction of four other buildings.
The architect and his firm centred the project’s concept around the archetypal rural farmhouse and therefore decided to locate the Centre in a lush rural setting, where various thriving crops alternate. The building consists of four aggregated structures which, intersecting one with the other, create, at the same time, a space that is internally unified but, from the outside, clearly well-defined.
Inside the building, for the floor coverings, the Mario Cucinella Architects firm chose the Blustyle’s Blutech collection, in the natural Anthracite colour. Blutech is a collection that represents a true evolution in unglazed porcelain stoneware technical products, since it uses a unique production technique, which enables it to combine performance and elegance.
The ventilated façade features Cotto d'Este surfaces from the BLACK-WHITE collection, porcelain stoneware slabs which, thanks to their extremely reduced thickness and large sizes, are able to guarantee unparalleled elasticity and resistance.
