Light and architecture lie at the base of the iGuzzini Illuminazione strategy. During the day, a "natural" organic form creates high quality and highly ergonomic workplaces. At night, the building is, transformed by artificial light into a glowing landmark in the landscape, a gigantic lantern. The project is the result of profound technological research, that runs parallel to the buildings use: an R&D center for the development of technical knowledge and expertise in lighting systems. This publication collects all aspects of this building: from the competition phase to the opening ceremony, every step is described, structure, sustainability aspects, skin, lighting...Exceptional photographs by Jordi Bernado and Adria Goula round up this volume.
