Architecture and Enterprise: Masterful Combination

The new management and production site of Rubinetterie Bresciane Bonomi in Brescia was designed by architect Gianfranco Sangalli. A project covering 53,300 square meters divided into volumes distinguished by extreme formal clarity and construction quality. A subtle play of transparencies introduces the buildings used for production covering them with a light and rigid mesh which expresses its structural rational in the management building creating a rich articulation of spaces.

In Gussago, in the province of Brescia, the new management and production site of Rubinetterie Bresciane Bonomi, leading company in the production of valves and the first green company in Lombardy, recently became operational. The industrial complex is located in the locality of Mandalossa, along the route of the old Padana Superiore SS11 highway and near the future slip road uniting Brescia with Bergamo and Milan (Bre-Be-Mi).

The design of the complex, by Gianfranco Sangalli, includes the construction of buildings used for manufacturing covering a total of 53,300 square meters, divided into the factory and the site used for offices and services. This new headquarters provides Rubinetterie Bresciane Bonomi with a work and production site in which to continue the business started as far back as 1901.

The project is located on an area of 117,500 square meters, where there are spaces intended for public use covering 23,400 square meters (20% of the total area), of which 16,600 square meters are given over to green areas, car parks and adjoining roads. The new facility is now comprised of a factory of around 30,000 square meters used for manufacturing and as a warehouse, and a building, with a gross floor area of around 4,200 square meters, equal to a covered floor space of around 1,300 square meters, used for related services and offices and with a remaining covered floor space of 22,000 square meters available for the future expansion of the company.
