The primary aim of Park Associati, the architecture firm founded by Filippo Pagliani and Michele Rossi in 2000, is to constantly move beyond the compositional and typological bounds of architecture. The studio’s projects draw on the kind of free and open exchange of ideas characterising the work carried out by its partners and collaborators.
“There exists a very effective Park method that we improved during the years, ” explains Michele. “It has been difficult to create it because it is a very personal method. It is based on dialogue, respect and trust between us, as well as with the boys of the studio. We believe this is fundamental. ”
Featuring a constantly changing yet highly distinctive stylistic approach, the studio is known for experimenting with different building scales, working within different realms of design, and challenging contemporary building conventions.
Some of their major projects include the Nestlé Headquarters in Assago, the restructuring of the “Serenissima” or “Gioiaotto”, “The Cube by Electrolux” travelling restaurant, Salewa Headquarters in Bolzano, and the latest international stores for Brioni fashion company. These projects have helped build the firm’s reputation, and have been featured in specialist magazines and leading national-international architecture exhibitions.
