Iperceramica's New Office Headquarters in Italy

Design: MC A Architectural Firm

Iperceramica is the largest ceramic and bathroom company in Italy, headquartered in Modena, a major Italian industrial center. MC A followed two key points for Iperceramica's new office building headquarters.
Respect for people: Rethinking the workspace, promoting communication and sharing, and creating an office space that combines design aesthetics, a high-quality environment, and high efficiency, starting from creating a more comfortable working environment for employees. Respect for nature: Reducing the building's environmental impact, making full use of natural energy, integrating a variety of green design methods, and creating a model for the next generation of sustainable office buildings in Modena.

The building is two stories, with an area of over 1700 square meters. The design revolves around a central courtyard, creating a transparent cube that dialogues with nature, with a simple yet powerful style, blending into the surrounding environment.

The design aims to reduce energy consumption, minimize the building's environmental impact, and maximize the creation of high-quality office space. The all-wood main structure achieves a natural fusion of architecture and materials; compared to concrete and steel, wood structures require less water and energy during production.

The efficient double-glazed curtain wall on the facade regulates the indoor microclimate while strengthening the building's connection with the surrounding landscape. The thin metal plate roof adopts an asymmetrical shape, extending like a sail, providing shade from rain and the scorching summer sun, regulating indoor temperature, and thus reducing energy consumption.
A vibrant green courtyard is set in the center of the building, planted with various trees and shrubs, bringing seasonal scenery while improving air and office environment quality and enhancing employee well-being. The central courtyard, as the building's green buffer zone, forms a microclimate, saving energy needed for passive indoor cooling.

More than half of high-carbon buildings are concrete structures, and one-third are steel structures. In the face of the global climate crisis, wood structures help reduce the carbon emissions of buildings. This building uses advanced wood construction to create an environmentally friendly office environment in a simple and environmentally friendly way, significantly reducing embodied carbon and greatly reducing the building's carbon emissions. At the same time, the wood structure adopts an integrated design, greatly shortening construction time and cost, and ensuring a quiet and clean construction site.
