a_mi bar, Milan 2006
There was the need for the place, a bar and restaurant location, to be, at the same time, a flexible space and an easily recognizable site reflecting a precise, strong and unique image. These inputs generated the concept of the project: one "consistent and closed in itself" structure at the same time articulated in order to satisfy the different and flexible functions. It was designed a unique "structure/sculpture" wrapping the entire space and defining the different areas, shaped as a fluid and multifunctional form. This "sculpture" was treated in a consistent and "minimal" way for the forms and the surfaces it was defining, in order to underline the impact of the message through its synthesis. The creation of the volume/sculpture is the result of experimental studies through 3 dimensional digital models and physical models that leaded the design process.
