Open 336 is a sustainable architecture focused on the comfort and well-being of its users. Featuring hybrid spaces that offer modern and functional offices, this building offers a reinterpretation of the industrial identity of the surrounding neighbourhood. It stems from the desire to create an architecture integrated into its context, a district characterised by a series of large early twentieth century production plants. The terracotta-coloured fibre cement façade of the new building is characterised by regularly-spaced large windows that interact with the surrounding structures.
