Working from the Himalayas _ The design of the Pankhasari retreat

Starting this September, it will be possibile to follow the progress of the Agnelli Foundation building site in Torino, Italy, through a dedicated photogallery showing the construction process step-by-step. The redesign of the Agnelli Foundation's historical building aims to create a new workplace that naturally learns and is synchronized to its users’ needs, thus facilitating human interaction, optimizing space usage and limiting energy waste. The completed building will open in Spring, 2017.
