The starting point here was the featureless interior of a recently opened branch of Banca S. Paolo Invest, lacking a strong image to convey to its clients. This represented an opportunity to extend the office space and restyle the whole interior, on the basis of a more rational and forceful layout. The project concept featured a three-pronged approach: to establish a clear link between the image of the branch and that of the bank, based on a matching colour scheme; to create a dynamic contemporary interior reflecting an impression of positiveness and modernity; to strengthen the bank's links with the outside community, by creating dedicated exhibition spaces conducive to its becoming a citywide venue for cultural events.
