Sankt Annen Galerie
Brandenburg (Germany)

Location: Brandenburg - Germany
Design: Pechtold Arch. + Witzel+Partner Ingenieurbüro
Materials used: Rovere Antico - IRIDIUM - Nero Marquinia - Crema Marfil

The newly opened Sankt Annen Galerie shopping centre in central Brandenburg features prestigious materials in its interior dècor.
Designed by Pechtold Arch. + Witzel+Partner Ingenieurbüro architectural studios, the new Sankt Annen Galerie shopping centre has 14,500 square metres of display space fitting harmoniously into the historic centre of the town of Brandenburg.
The project features carefully chosen materials in the external facing and interiors. The elegance, luminosity and resistance of the flooring is a result of the choice of Ariostea materials: a 2500 square metre supply including about 50 rosettes, carpets and decorations made to define shoppersí routes using the sophisticated water jet cutting technique to add prestige to the floors in this high traffic area.
The complicated installation of ARIOSTEA materials has been duly cared from the Company Arcadia Fliesen und Naturstein GmbH.

New Nusco Porte showroom

Location: Nola (NA) - Italy
Design: Arch. Nicola Litto
Materials used: Universe - Night Blue

Nusco Porte’s new showroom is a high impact space which attracts visitors’ attention and makes a great impression, underlining the quality of the Group’s products on display in a simple setting while at the same time attracting attention to the view outside through the glass walls all around the building.
The biggest challenge architect Nicola Litto faced was overcoming the “usual” idea of the exhibition space, underlining the product and its particular qualities without falling into the trap of banality, creating a particular elegant, prestigious setting that demonstrates how the company itself is evolving in its designs, internal organisation, and above all ability to create products free of aesthetic and dimensional constraints.

Poliambulatorio Dalla Rosa Prati

Location: Parma
Design: Arch. Francesca Dalla Rosa Prati - Ing. Andrea Maggiorelli
Materials used: High-Tech Woods - Rovere Grigio

The new European Diagnostic Centre in Parma is shaped like the wing of an aircraft

Cutting-edge technology, maximum visibility and a welcoming atmosphere are the keys to the new Poliambulatorio Dalla Rosa Prati clinic in Parma, a clear glass building shaped like the wing of an aircraft to symbolise the infinite possibilities offered by science.
While the arcade leading into the building is made of three-part steel columns, the upper levels – linked by a sculptural spiral staircase of white reinforced concrete – have no pillars inside, for the supports are incorporated into the building’s structural outer wrapper.

SILK LIMESTONE
THE REAL AND GENUINE BEAUTY OF NATURALE STONE

Silk Limestone by Ariostea has all the fascination of natural stone: it is a high-tech, compact slab that is genuinely uniform in depth and characterised by very subtle variations in tone, as created by nature herself.

SILK: AN INCREDIBLE VELVETY SURFACE.
A fine, unique and surprising surface finish. The incomparable silky effect of the special silk polishing is achieved through an exclusive series of mechanical processes, similar to those that form naturally-occurring surfaces, and cannot be obtained with enamel or artificial applications.
The refined beauty and natural elegance of Silk Limestone is due to the ultra-fine grain size of the quarried limestone, perfectly understood and treated by Ariostea in painstaking detail.

Centrum Galerie Dresda

Location: Dresden, Germany
Design: PT+T Design, Dresden; Peter Kulka, Dresden; De Architekten Cie, Amsterdam
Materials used: Black Ardesia, Crema Europa

Dresden’s biggest shopping centre has just opened, with 4 levels, international gastronomic concepts, services and recreational facilities for children

Multi Development Germany GmbH has built Dresden’s biggest mall, with more than 52,000 square metres of retail space. Located on the central shopping street in the “Florence of the North”, Prager Strasse, the mall was designed by T+T Design architectural studios of Holland in collaboration with Dresden architect Peter Kulka and De Architekten Cie studios of Amsterdam. Centrum Galerie Dresda includes 4 floors of shops, a variety of services including a daycare centre on the top floor, recreational facilities for children, an indoor parking lot for about 1000 cars, a 180 metre façade and a big entrance to attract visitors inside. The design by Peter Kulka, who won the 2006 competition for the façade, demonstrates respect for the building’s historic structure and relates it to the new materials in use today. 

O2 World Arena

Client: Anschutz Entertainment Group Development GmbH
Design: J.S.K. Architekten
