Interiors in industrial structures usually are hard to go with aesthetical values; Barthélémy Griño Architectes have endowed this manufacturing workshop with minimal and refined interior design.
South of Ferrara, on the fertile and meticulously manicured plain of the Po River in Italy here the two main economic uses of the valley are for industry and for agriculture, both major uses. Amidst the orchards, stands new Berluti manufacture of luxury shoemaking, which does not resemble itself like the usual other industrial edifice. This workshop is not a factory, but rather a genuine manufacturing industry.
The intelligence of hands and the transmission of gestures are echoed in the care taken with the details of the building’s construction.
