Pininfarina, one of the well-known brand, symbol of design “made in Italy” debuted in the Polish Real Estate market in partnership with Hines (international society of real estate that has characterized the new skyline milanese with Porta Nuova buildings) for the construction of the luxury office complex Proximo.
The building (28,385 sqm) will rise in one of the most dynamically developing parts of Warsaw, offering tenants best-in class office space. Additionally, Proximo will be certified to a BREEAM Very Good, one of the world’s foremost environmental assessment methods and rating systems for sustainable buildings. Construction started at the end of June 2014 and will be completed in May 2016.
Pininfarina has designed two iconic lobbies and the internal courtyard, identifying a distinctive design language tailor made on Proximo identity and on prospect tenants’ needs in order to convey to the whole structure both a unique character and an extremely refined experience.
“In Proximo our architectural identity found expression giving life to elegant and sophisticated business spaces – affirms Chairman Paolo Pininfarina. – We believe the know-how and the skills shown in Proximo will be met with interest and new application on the Polish market.”
The entrance lobby is characterized by sinuous and elegant lines and by the combination of modern material reminding the car design with classical ones, creating an appealing contrast. The second lobby has been integrated in the stairs combining aesthetics with functionality. A strong family feeling between the two lobbies is generated by smooth surfaces and the use of the same materials. Pininfarina will also design the internal courtyard of the building.
