Lapitec S.p.A.: Creating a business card with sintered stone
Lapitec S.p.A. designed its new headquarters in Vedelago, Italy, with its sintered stone slabs as a prime example of the aesthetic and technical values of its product
When it came to the design of its own headquarters in Vedelago, Italy, Lapitec S.p.A., a producer of large, full-bodied, sintered stone slabs, turned to its own product to create a modern corporate design. The 195,000-square-foot building has become a technical and aesthetic expression of the Lapitec brand.
The design of the new building, which was the creation of Italian architects Fabrizio Bettiol and Francesco Pascali, included the exterior and internal facades, walls, floors, doors, bathrooms, ceilings and tables. Additionally, the material was also employed for exterior applications, such as fences, a sliding gate, company logo, garden paving and outdoor benches. The exterior of the headquarters has basically been designed to serve as the company’s new business card.
