Description
Aresline is a leading international company specializing in furnishing public spaces.
Its new headquarters extends over more than 9,000 square metres in the industrial area of Thiene (Vicenza), Italy.
The building is conceived as a single volume, where the expansive glazed façade engages in a dialogue with the main office elevation, both through continuity of colour and the alignment between the vertical mullions and the concrete “fins” that act as sun screening elements.
A hybrid, fully glazed curtain wall – approximately 90 metres long and 8 metres high – features reflective, low-emissivity, solar-control glass and high-performance thermal profiles.
The opening elements are structurally integrated, with slim profiles that enhance the striking “glass wall” effect. Internally, the window frames are finished in white to maximise natural light within the working environments.
A specially engineered solution, conceived for optimal acoustic performance, connects the façade to the intermediate floor slab. Meanwhile, the clean design of the entrance cantilever roof – constructed from a steel framework and clad in aluminium composite – emphasises its minimalist character, further enhanced by a distinctive mirrored finish: unconventional and visually striking.
The production area is distinguished by vertical bands, featuring double-glazed, low-emissivity glass, screened by expanded metal mesh. Thanks to its dark colour, this solution integrates seamlessly with the rest of the building, enhancing its presence within the surrounding landscape.
The project is completed by an automatic entrance door, two large (approximately 8 × 5 metres) motorised micro-perforated roller shutters, folding doorways, rapid doors, two technical entrance mat systems, EI 120 sliding doors, and bespoke internal doors.
The result is an architectural volume with striking visual impact that defines the skyline of one of the most dynamic manufacturing districts in North-East Italy.
