Milan, on the one hand; architecture today, on the other: Unipol Tower is one of the latest projects in the city to feature a “sensory” building.
Milan is growing fast and—above all—it is getting higher and higher in terms of architecture and urban development.
A new tower stands out against the city skyline: the Unipol Tower designed by Mario Cucinella Architects, an internationally renowned architecture studio based in Milan and Bologna. The Unipol Tower is a 124-meter elliptical tower in the Porta Nuova area, in the heart of the city. Made from glass and steel, it has a glasshouse on the rooftop serving as a cultural venue. Commissioned by Unipol, the leading Italian insurance company, the tower looks beyond the corporate identity and headquarters of Unipol and has been acclaimed as one of the most advanced architecture projects ever created.
Manuel Orazi describes the structure in terms of its conception and its inclusion within the urban context, together with the testimony of the structural engineer, Massimo Majowiecki. The creator of the building, architect Mario Cucinella, talks about its genesis. Architecture critic Jay Merrick introduces the book with a foreword.
