The new building is located alongside the existing buildings to create a compact nucleus of the different work activities.
The office space is structured to be an representative image of the company.
The work of restructuring will rely on a skin in order to wrap around the preexisting structure to the new intervention: the different warehouses in successive time will become absorbed by the resurfacing in the vertical wooden planks presenting a new facade both recomposed, reordered and harmonious.
In the space between the buildings and the new facade there is a visitor route located that from the outside allows you to follow the different stages of production: in a constant relationship with portions of the historical and productive landscape.
The principal material composed of Beechwood used both for the exterior spaces and the interiors.
Beechwood from the Cansiglio area has been utilized. The wood comes from the controlled forest of Cansiglio,
through which a selection process is carried out according to Veneto Agricultura (an official body with the task of forest management in the Veneto Region). It is a forest certified according to the PEFC scheme (Prog for Endorsement of Forest Certific).
The choice is to promote the territory sensitizing it to its visitors towards a natural ecosystem, a forest heritage managed according to a naturalistic forest mandate, and following the criteria of the forest certification.
This process encompasses within itself the precise environmental philosophy of the Cantina and of its natural products that shows also in the character of the material utilized.
In particular, the wood utilized was cut in October 2015 and in part was cook for external use and a part was laid with its natural finish.
